I got ECHA... hope it's right:)
We know that the opposite is the additive inverse.
For example, 8+(−8)=0 where 0 is the identity for addition.
Given that we have to compute the sum of 5x+20 and the opposite.
Given
5x+20
opposite of 5x+20 = -(5x+20)
so
The sum of 5x+20 and the opposite:
5x+20 + -(5x+20)
Distribute the Negative Sign

Therefore, the sum of 5x+20 and the opposite is: 0
Thus, the equivalent expression is:
The answers to the questions
Answer:
20x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
in a rectangle, the sides opposite from each other are equal, and finding the perimeter means you going to add all the sides together
therefore we have
4x-1+4x-1+6x+5+6x+5=20x+8
