8\left(3-2x\right)+20\left(x+1\right)=40+3x-5
Multiply both sides of the equation by 40, the least common multiple of 5,2,40.
24-16x+20\left(x+1\right)=40+3x-5
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 3-2x.
24-16x+20x+20=40+3x-5
Use the distributive property to multiply 20 by x+1.
24+4x+20=40+3x-5
Combine -16x and 20x to get 4x.
44+4x=40+3x-5
Add 24 and 20 to get 44.
44+4x=35+3x
Subtract 5 from 40 to get 35.
44+4x-3x=35
Subtract 3x from both sides.
44+x=35
Combine 4x and -3x to get x.
x=35-44
Subtract 44 from both sides.
x=-9
Subtract 44 from 35 to get -9.
