80=x_{3}-4x
Combine -5x and x to get -4x.
x_{3}-4x=80
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-4x=80-x_{3}
Subtract x_{3} from both sides.
\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{80-x_{3}}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
x=\frac{80-x_{3}}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
x=\frac{x_{3}}{4}-20
Divide 80-x_{3} by -4.
80=x_{3}-4x
Combine -5x and x to get -4x.
x_{3}-4x=80
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x_{3}=80+4x
Add 4x to both sides.
