30x-1800=20x+800
Use the distributive property to multiply 20 by x+40.
30x-1800-20x=800
Subtract 20x from both sides.
10x-1800=800
Combine 30x and -20x to get 10x.
10x=800+1800
Add 1800 to both sides.
10x=2600
Add 800 and 1800 to get 2600.
x=\frac{2600}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
x=260
Divide 2600 by 10 to get 260.
