Write the word statement as an equation. Use x to represent the unknown number. Do not solve.The quotient of the difference of 5 and a number and the sum of twice the number and 20, yields 3 times the number added to 36.
A. (x - 5) ÷ (2x + 20) = 36 - 3x
B. (5 - x)(2x + 20) = 3x - 36
C. (5 - x) ÷ (2x + 20) = 3x + 36
D. (x - 5)(2x + 20) = 36 - 3x
