Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

First add 20 to both sides:

[tex]\frac{x}{3} - 20 = -15[/tex]

   + 20    + 20

____________

[tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex] = 5

The fraction, [tex]\frac{x}{3}[/tex], is really just [tex]\frac{1}{3} x[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{1}{3} x = 5[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3:

[tex]\frac{1}{3} x = 5[/tex]

x = 15
