Answer:

y=2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

−8x+4y=20

Step 1: Add 8x to both sides.

−8x+4y+8x=20+8x

4y=8x+20

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.

4y4=8x+204

y=2x+5

Answer:

y=2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for y.

20=8x+4y

Step 1: Flip the equation.

8x+4y=20

Step 2: Add -8x to both sides.

8x+4y+−8x=20+−8x

4y=−8x+20

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

−8x+20

y=−2x+5

The answer is $\boxed{7},$ where $a=5$ and $b=2.$

<em>Solution sketch:</em>

Apply the Pythagorean theorem to find $EC$ and $AE,$ which you then use to find $AD$ and $BC.$ Apply Heron's formula to $\triangle ABC$ to find that its area is 10, and then use $[ABC]=\frac{(AB)(CF)}{2}$ (base times height over 2) to finish by solving for $CF.$ .
