Solution Steps

To solve the equation \(5(4x - 3) = 105\), we need to first distribute the 5 across the terms inside the parentheses. Then, we will isolate the variable \(x\) by performing algebraic operations such as addition or subtraction and division.

Step 1: Distribute the 5

We start with the equation: \[ 5(4x - 3) = 105 \] Distributing the 5 gives: \[ 20x - 15 = 105 \]

Step 2: Isolate the Variable

Next, we isolate \(x\) by adding 15 to both sides: \[ 20x = 105 + 15 \] This simplifies to: \[ 20x = 120 \]

Step 3: Solve for \(x\)

Now, we divide both sides by 20: \[ x = \frac{120}{20} \] This simplifies to: \[ x = 6 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{x = 6}\)
