20x-\left(95-10x\right)=10x-55
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
20x-95-\left(-10x\right)=10x-55
To find the opposite of 95-10x, find the opposite of each term.
20x-95+10x=10x-55
The opposite of -10x is 10x.
30x-95=10x-55
Combine 20x and 10x to get 30x.
30x-95-10x=-55
Subtract 10x from both sides.
20x-95=-55
Combine 30x and -10x to get 20x.
20x=-55+95
Add 95 to both sides.
20x=40
Add -55 and 95 to get 40.
x=\frac{40}{20}
Divide both sides by 20.
x=2
Divide 40 by 20 to get 2.
