Answer:-5 or -5/1
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x+y)=-20
-5x+-5=-20
-5x=-25
x=-5
Answer:
y = 5x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x+y)=-20
We're trying to get to slope intercept form which is y=mx+b.
-5x - 5y = -20 < distribute the - to the x and the y.
-5y = -20 +5x < add the -5x to the right side of the equation.
y = -20/-5 + 5x < divide the -5 from the y.
y = 4 +5x < simplify
y = 5x + 4
