{{{4(t-8)+20=5}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4t-32+20=5}}} Distribute.



{{{-12+4t=5}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{4t=5+12}}} Add {{{12}}} to both sides.



{{{4t=17}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{t=(17)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{4}}} to isolate {{{t}}}.
