To solve the equation, we can isolate the variable x.
First, let's subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:
2/5x + 4 - 4 = 1/5 - 4
2/5x = 1/5 - 20/5
2/5x = (1 - 20)/5
2/5x = -19/5
Now, to isolate x, let's multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/5, which is 5/2:
(2/5x) * (5/2) = (-19/5) * (5/2)
1x = -95/10
1x = -9.5
Therefore, the solution to the equation 2/5x + 4 = 1/5 is x = -9.5.
