Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
36x-20=160
first, find the value of x
add 20 from both sides
36x-20=160
+20 +20
36x=180
then, divide 36 from both sides to get x by itself
36x/36=140/36
x=5
now, plug x into the equation to check your work
36(5)-20=160
multiply 36 and 5
180-20=160
subtract 20 from 180
180-20=160
