How do I solve this?

patriot [66]

You already know that y equals -4. It says that x equals 3, so multiply the -4 by 3 and because it has a negative number and a positive number it will equal -12. Remember anytime you see a letter after a number it means multiply. The complete problem should be -10 because 2 is a whole number you subtract it from -12. Hope that helped you out some.
