Answer:

x = -1

y = -3 or

x = -3

y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 - (-3) =

-1 + 3 = 2

-3 - (-5) =

-3 + 5 = 2

Answer:

It can be any negative pair of numbers that when you substitute in the equation you get 2 as an answer,

For example:

x = -17 and y = -19

x= - 5 and y = -7

x= -3 and y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative integers are all the negative numbers or all the numbers below 0.

So, in this case, you have to look for negative numbers that if you put in the equation you get 2.

x-y=2

In this equation it says that you need to subtract y from x, (-y), if y has to be a negative number, if, for example, we say that <em>y = -4</em> then we will have this after substituting in the equation:

x - (-4) = 2

If we have two negative together multiplying like in this case - (-4) then it becomes positive:

-(-4) = +4, because equal sings make a positive.

If we substitute in the original equation we have:

x + 4 = 2

Now we can get the answer for x

x = 2-4

x= - 2

If we send y to the other side of the equation,

x= 2+y, every time we choose a negative number for y we will have a number for x that is y plus 2. This is why you can get any negative number for one variable and then substitute in this equation x= 2+y and get a result for the other variable.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average car manufactured in the United states in 2001 could drive 24.5 miles on 1 car gallon of gas. To find the number of yards the car can travel on gallon of gas, we would convert 24.5 miles.

1 mile = 1760 yards

24.5 miles = 24.5 × 1760

= 43120 yards

Therefore, the car drives 43120 yards on 1 gallon of gas.
