Answer:
It means that 20 times x is 5
also the answer to that problem (20x=5) is 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
20x means
20 * x
and since 20 * x = 5
divide 5 and 20
5/20 = 1/4
The answer is 2.6. I could be wrong.
Let's use the "elimination by addition/subtraction" method to solve this system for x and y.
<span> -8x=72-16y
4x=-92+16y <= Mult. all 3 terms by 2: 8x = - 184 + 32y
Now combine the following, column by column:
</span><span> -8x= 72-16y
</span>8x = - 184 + 32y
-----------------------
0 = -112 + 16y. Solving for y, 16y = 112, and y = 7.
Now subst. 7 for y in either of the original equations and calculate x:
<span>4x=-92+16(7) => 4x = -92 + 112 = 20. Then x = 5.
Solution is 5, -7 (or, better written) (5, - 7).</span>
Is that a question? and are there any answers to go with it if so?

you just multiply the two
