Question

What is the value of y−5x−3for x = 2 and y = -4

Answer 1

Answer

-17

Explanation

y−5x−3 for x = 2 and y = -4

We solve this question by substituting the values of y and x.

y−5x−3 = -4 - 5(2) - 3

             = -4 - 10 -3

             = -14 - 3

            = -17

Answer 2

y−5x−3 for x = 2 and y = -4

To find the value of y−5x−3 , we plug in 2 for x  and -4 for y

y−5x−3

-4 - 5(2) - 3

Now we use order of operation and simplify it

We remove the parenthesis first

-4 - 10 -3

Now we add all the numbers and put the same sign because all the numbers are negative

-17

The value of y−5x−3  is  -17
