Step-by-step explanation:

-4x – 2y= -18

Add 2y to both sides

-4x- 2y+ 2y = -18 + 2y

Simplify

-4x = -18 + 2y

Divide both sides by -4

-4x/-4= -18/-4+ 2y/-4

simplify

x= - -9+y/2

Answer:

(-4)(9)
(6)(-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

$(-4)(-9)\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a,\:-\left(-a\right)=a\\=4\times\:9\\= 36$

$(-4)(9)\\\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=-4\times\:9\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:4\times\:9=36\\=-36$

$(6)(6)\\\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=6\times\:6\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:6\times\:6\\=36$

$(-6)(-6)\\\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a,\:-\left(-a\right)=a\\=6\times 6\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:6\times\:6\\=36$

$(6)(-6)\\\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=-6\times 6\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:6\times \:6=36\\=-36$
