Lets get stated :)

2x ( -1 ) - 4 = - 2
- 2x - 4 = - 2

Bring 4 to the right-hand side { You do addition to the opposite }
- 2x = - 2 + 4
- 2x = 2

Take - 2 to the other side in order to isolate x { Do division when you see multiplication }
\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{2}{-2}
x = -1

Quick check:
2 ( - 1 ) ( - 1 ) - 4 = - 2
2 - 4 = - 2
- 2 = - 2
So it is the correct value

7x + 2y=24<br> 8x + 2y=30
Bumek [7]

Answer:

x=6 y=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Layer the equations on each other as you would in a subtraction problem:

               8x + 2y=30

               7x + 2y=24  

  • Subtract the equation just like you would normally. This should leave 1x=6 or x=6.
  • Now that you have your x value, plug it in as x for one of the equations. For the 2nd equation, this leaves:

               42+2y=24 then

               2y=-18 then

               y=-9

  • Double check your y value by plugging x=6 into the first equation. This should also leave y=-9.

Answer:

The answer is C because how much each girl paid for each pound of cherries has the variable C attached, and the rest of the money spent added to it. Also looking in the equation the sign tells us that they paid the same price for everything totaled in all.
