Question

Find a solution to the linear equation-2x-2y=8 by filling in the boxes with a valid value of x and y

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want the "root" of the equation...

First get y by itself on one side. You should get y = - x - 8.

Notice that this is the equation of a straight line.

Then let y = 0, and solve for x. You should get x = -8.

So the solution or "root" of the equation is at the point (-8,0)

Answer 2

Answer:

X=0, y=0, x=3

Put the values into the equation. You should get -4,0

-2(-4) –2(0)=8
