Question

Evaluate the expression 2(2-y)-x When y = 8 and x = -3, what is the value of the expression?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your answer will be (-9)

This is how I got my answer-

2(2-y)-x

2(2-8)-(-3)

2 - 8= (-6)

2 × (-6) = (-12)

(-12) - (-3) = (-9)

Answer 2

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8

x = -3

• 2(2-y)-x =                       ⇒ replace x and y with their values
• 2(2 - 8) - (-3) =               ⇒ solve parenthesis
• 2(-6) + 3 =                      ⇒ multiply
• -12 + 3=                          ⇒ add
• - 9                                   ⇒ answer
