Answer:
First choice: m = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The second equation is already solved for n, so lets's use the substitution method and substitute m - 2 for n in the first equation.
m - 2n = 8
m - 2(m - 2) = 8
m - 2m + 4 = 8
-m + 4 = 8
-m = 4
m = -4
Answer:
b. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we are given
and are asked to simplify it. We are going to apply the law of exponents which says that

Hence applying this rule in our problem we get, where a=y and n=3

Hence our C) Option is correct
Answer:
9.) B. division
10.) 8
Explanation:
9. Which operation to do first in order of operations?
Answer: Applying BODMAS where:
[B] brackets
[O] order
[D] division
[M] multiplication
[A] addition
[S] subtraction
Maintaining order, division operation is done first. Then multiplication and then addition and so on.
10. Given that N = 48 ÷ 3 × 2
⇒ N = 48 ÷ 3 × 2
⇒ N = 48 ÷ 6
⇒ N = 8
