Answer 5

Ok so your original equation is \[Y=\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }x +8\]

Answer 6

First, we plug in 20 for x \[Y=\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }(20)+8\]

Answer 7

Since all whole numbers have a denominator of 1, we can multiply them together.\[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 } \times \frac{ 20 }{ 1 }\]
To do this, you can simply just multiply 1 by 20, and 4 by 1

Answer 8

Now we get \[Y= \frac{ 20 }{ 4 }+8\]
To finish solving, do \[20\div4=5\] and then add 8.
8+5=13
