Plug in the given numbers (x) to the equation.
For example, let's take the first value it gives us.
-10(-2) +y=4
20+y=4
y=-16
Then you would put that on the table, and plug in the next value(s).
Hope this helped!
The correct answer is: "(-1, -2)" .

Note: By examining the point of intersection of the lines of the 2 graphs show in the "image attached", we can see that the point of intersection is at: "(-1, 2"); that is: "x = -1, y = 2" .

Formula of square area
a = s²
thus, area of the first square could be written as s₁² and area of the second square could be written as s₂²
First, write an expression in the form of equation system
An expression for "The combined area of two squares is 45 square centimeters" is:
⇒ s₁² + s₂² = 45 <em>(first equation)</em>
An expression for "Each side of one square is twice as long as side of the other" is:
⇒ s₁ = 2s₂ <em>(second equation)</em>
Second, solve the equation system by substitution method.
⇒ We could substitute 2s₂ to s₁ (second equation) in the first equation in order to find the value of s₂
s₁² + s₂² = 45
(2s₂)² + s₂² = 45
(2²)(s₂)² + s₂² = 45
4s₂² + s₂² = 45
5s₂² = 45
s₂² = 45/5
s₂² = 9
s₂² = 3²
s₂ = 3
⇒ Substitute the value of s₂ to the second equation in order to find the value of s₁
s₁ = 2s₂
s₁ = 2(3)
s₁ = 6
The length of each side of the larger square is 6 centimeters
Y=2x
y is the amount of money made from the sold books
x is the number of books that are sold (it is x because you don't know how many will be sold, so you have to account for all possibilities)
2x is because every book is sold for 2 dollars, so that mean x is multiplied by 2 to get y
