Exponents can make the problem smaller and look less confusing. If you see a problem with 5*5*5*5*5*5*5*5 then you're going to eventually loose count and will have to keep repeating. But if you put 5 to the 8th power then you know right away just to multiply 5, (8) times,
Answer:-7x+2y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2x+y=8)-(5x-y=6)
(-2x+y=8)> this side change since it’s negative
(-2x+y=8) - (-5x+y=-6)
-7x+2y=2
