Answer 2

what have you tried to do?

Answer 3

um y-20 + 5 1/2x?

Answer 4

y is 20 less than the product of five and half of x.

y is 20 less than 5 \(\large\color{slate}{ \cdot }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ \frac{1}{2}x }\)


( y is 20 less than this product, -- that means that if you add 20 to the y, then it will be equivalent to this product. )


y + 20 = 5 \(\large\color{slate}{ \cdot }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ \frac{1}{2}x }\)

Answer 5

or, you can say, y = 5 \(\large\color{slate}{ \cdot }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ \frac{1}{2}x }\) - 20
