Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

20x+5−0=5x+(32.5)(2)

20x+5+0=5x+65

(20x)+(5+0)=5x+65(Combine Like Terms)

20x+5=5x+65

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

20x+5−5x=5x+65−5x

15x+5=65

Step 3: Subtract 5 from both sides.

15x+5−5=65−5

15x=60

Step 4: Divide both sides by 15.

15x

x=4

Hope this helps!

What is the equation of the following line? Be sure to scroll down first to see all answer options.

Annette [7]

From the figure the given line passes through the points (0, 0) and (-4, 8).

Recall that the equation of a straight line is given by
$\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1} = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Thus, The equation of the given figure is given by
$\frac{y-0}{x-0} = \frac{8-0}{-4-0}= \frac{8}{-4} \\ \\ -4y=8x \\ \\ y=-2x$
