Answer: <em>10 + 9 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>1. Distribute: 3(6+3) - (8-x) = 18 + 9 - (8)</em>
<em>2. Eliminate redundant parentheses: 18 + 9 - (8) = 18 + 9 - 1 ⋅ 8</em>
<em>3. Multiply the numbers: 18 + 9 - 1 ⋅ 8 = 18 + 9 - 8 </em>
4. Combine like terms: 18 + 9 - 8 = 10 + 9
<em>⋅</em>

Answer:
x = -2 y= -8 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there is an equal number of y's, they cancel out when subtracting. You can put either equation on top. You will get same answer.
<u>To find x:</u>
<u>If you do (3x - 2y = 10) - (5x + 2y = 6),</u> you will get -2x=4. Divide both sides by -2, and get x = -2.
<u>If you do (5x + 2y = 6) - (3x - 2y = 10)</u>, you will get 2x=-4.Divide both sides by 2, and get x = -2.
<u>To find y:</u>
Substitute -2 for x in either equation. It doesn't matter.
<u>For 3(-2) - 2y = 10:</u>
3(-2) - 2y = 10 ––Multiply
-6 - 2y =10 ––Add 6 to both sides to get y alone
-2y = 16 ––Divide by -2
y = -8
<u>For 5x + 2y = 6:</u>
5(-2) + 2y = 6 ––Multiply
-10 + 2y = 6 ––Add 10 to both sides to get y alone
2y = 16 ––Divide by 2
y = 8
-17 is the correct answer:)
