Answer

$y=4-x$

Work Step by Step

The given equation is $\Rightarrow 10x+5y=5x+20$ Subtract $10x$ from each side. $\Rightarrow 10x+5y-10x=5x+20-10x$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow 5y=20-5x$ Divide each side by $5$. $\Rightarrow \frac{5y}{5}=\frac{20-5x}{5}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow y=4-x$ Hence, the rewritten literal equation is $y=4-x$.
