Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to do this we need to isolate y by performing the inverse operations on the other values like so...

a)   10x + 5y = 20   ... subtract 10x on both sides

     5y = 20 - 10x    ... divide both sides by 5

       y = 4 - 2x   ... we can move the 2x to the right to make it into y = mx + b

       y = -2x + 4

b)   3x - 2y = 10 + 4x   ... subtract 3x on both sides

      -2y = 10 + x    ... divide both sides by -2

       y = -5 - 0.5x ... move -0.5 to the left so it matches y = mx + b

      y = -0.5x - 5
