Answer 1

Answer:

×=7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5=20

2x+5=20

-5=20

=15

2x=15

÷2

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x=6

Explanation:

Given:

$\frac{1}{2}(4x+16) =20$

Now we will do cross multiply on both sides of the equation  

$1\times(4x+16)=20\times2$

(4x+16)=40

Now we will solve the above equation  

$4x+16-40=0$

$4x-24=0$

$4x=24$

$x=\frac{24}{4}$

$x=6$

Hence the  required value which satisfy the given equation of the question is x=6.
