Given
1 (3x) + 20 = 4x
Proof Table
# Claim Reason
1 (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) if (3x) + 20 = 4x, then (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x)
2 (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = 20 (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = 20
3 20 = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) if (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = 20 and (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + ((3x) + 20) = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x), then 20 = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x)
4 (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) = x (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) = x
5 20 = x if 20 = (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) and (((-1) ⋅ 3) ⋅ x) + (4x) = x, then 20 = x
