Divide the first equation by 2 and add the result to the second equation. This will eliminate x.

... (-4x -2y)/2 + (2x +4y) = (-12)/2 +(-12)

... 3y = -18 . . . . . collect terms

... y = -6 . . . . . . . divide by 3

Substitute this into either equation to find x. Let's use the second equation, where the coefficient of x is positive.

... 2x +4(-6) = -12

... 2x = 12 . . . . . . . . add 24

... x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The solution is (x, y) = (6, -6).

Which expression has a negative value?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Negative 35 divided by 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this answer by using process of elimination. So let's try it shall we?

2+12

This has to positive numbers in the process of addition so this would be a positive number with the answer of 14.

-3 x -8

This equation has two negatives being multiplied by each other hence cancelling each other out so the answer would be positive.

10 - (-18)

Much like the last equation there are to negatives, but this equation is subtracting by a negative so the negatives next to each other in that way would cancel each other out leaving you with a positive 28.

-35 / 5

Seeing as we have checked every other equation this one must be negative but lets check. When you divide a negative by a positive the positive would automatically take the form of the negative number, because it does not have a negative of its own to cancel the negative out so this must have a negative outcome.
