(1+kx)(1−2x)^5  = (1+kx)[Σ_(n=0) ^5 C_n ^( 5) (−2x)^(5−n)  ]  =(1+kx)(C_3 ^( 5) (−2x)^2 +C _2^5  (−2x)^3 )  =(1+kx)(80x^2 −160x^3 )  coefficient of  x^3  ⇒80k−160=20  ⇒80k=180 ; k=((18)/8)= (9/4)

$$\left(\mathrm{1}+{kx}\right)\left(\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}{x}\right)^{\mathrm{5}} \:=\:\left(\mathrm{1}+{kx}\right)\left[\underset{{n}=\mathrm{0}} {\overset{\mathrm{5}} {\sum}}{C}_{{n}} ^{\:\mathrm{5}} \left(−\mathrm{2}{x}\right)^{\mathrm{5}−{n}} \:\right] \\ $$$$=\left(\mathrm{1}+{kx}\right)\left({C}_{\mathrm{3}} ^{\:\mathrm{5}} \left(−\mathrm{2}{x}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +{C}\:_{\mathrm{2}} ^{\mathrm{5}} \:\left(−\mathrm{2}{x}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} \right) \\ $$$$=\left(\mathrm{1}+{kx}\right)\left(\mathrm{80}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{160}{x}^{\mathrm{3}} \right) \\ $$$${coefficient}\:{of}\:\:{x}^{\mathrm{3}} \:\Rightarrow\mathrm{80}{k}−\mathrm{160}=\mathrm{20} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{80}{k}=\mathrm{180}\:;\:{k}=\frac{\mathrm{18}}{\mathrm{8}}=\:\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$

please post a new question instead of comments  it′s easy, just type on the ≡ sign in the left  upper corner, then select forum and finally  the + on top.
