The answer is:
x=-8
Because:
If you pick a number(-8) to fill in the equation written below
5x+20+5x=5x-20
After applying the -8 to x you get
-40+20-40=-40-20
When you simply the both sides you get
-60=-60
And that’s right -60 is equal to -60!
The answer is x equals 1/2.

Answer:
16.7
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
a = 11
c = 20
11^2 + b^2 = 20^2
121 + b^2 = 400
b^2 = 279
b = sqrt(279) = 16.7
Algebra is Faster And Better Than “Basic” Math
Just as multiplying two by twelve is faster than counting to 24 or adding 2 twelve times, algebra helps us solve problems more quickly and easily than we could otherwise. Algebra also opens up whole new areas of life problems, such as graphing curves that cannot be solved with only foundational math skills.
