20x-5-10+1-5x=x-12-5+15x
Combine 5x and 15x to get 20x.
20x-15+1-5x=x-12-5+15x
Subtract 10 from -5 to get -15.
20x-14-5x=x-12-5+15x
Add -15 and 1 to get -14.
15x-14=x-12-5+15x
Combine 20x and -5x to get 15x.
15x-14=x-17+15x
Subtract 5 from -12 to get -17.
15x-14=16x-17
Combine x and 15x to get 16x.
15x-14-16x=-17
Subtract 16x from both sides.
-x-14=-17
Combine 15x and -16x to get -x.
-x=-17+14
