For this case we must find the value of the variable "x" of the following equation:

[tex]5x (4-2) = 20[/tex]

We solve the operation within the parenthesis:

[tex]5x (2) = 20[/tex]

We multiply the left side:

[tex]10x = 20[/tex]

We divide both sides of the equation by 10:

[tex]x = \frac {20} {10}\\x = 2[/tex]

ANswer:

[tex]x = 2[/tex]
