I'm giving a problem to solve for x and I know how to do most 1 varible equations but I'm a little fuzzy on what to do for this type  

 

(x+20)2=3x 

 

 

Thanks so much for your help and time you spend teaching me how to understand the conept.

(x+20)2=3x

 

To take out that fraction multiply both sides by 2

 

(x+20)22=3x2

x+20=6x

 

Then to cancle out the 20 subtract 20 on both sides

x+2020=6x20

x=6x20

 

To combine terms subtract 6x on both sides

x6x=6x206x

5x=20

 

Then to single out the x on the left divide both sides by -5

5x5=205

 

Simplify

x=4

 

Your answer for x would be 4

 

Hope this helps ;P

Try me XD I went through years of pinching I've learned to bear the pain XD one day I'll dare you to give your best shot. (Trust me you won't suceed you won't get a whimper or a wince XD) 

 

 

BTW I like how you edit the response to say "I'm dead" XD, but you said you were okay with me calling you that you said I was premitted to use the term XD
