180-x=270-3x-20
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 90-x.
180-x=250-3x
Subtract 20 from 270 to get 250.
180-x+3x=250
Add 3x to both sides.
180+2x=250
Combine -x and 3x to get 2x.
2x=250-180
Subtract 180 from both sides.
2x=70
Subtract 180 from 250 to get 70.
x=\frac{70}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=35
Divide 70 by 2 to get 35.
