Answer: (4) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2y if x is 3 and y is 5
8x = 24
2y = 10
24 - 10 = 14
So 8x - 2y is 14.
If she have 12 pencils and she gave 3/4 away then she will have 3 pencils left.

Answer: 6</h3>
Mark the locations -6 and 0 on the number line. Note that going from -6 to 0, or vice versa, will take exactly 6 steps. Put another way, the distance between 0 and -6 is 6 units. Absolute value represents distance, so it is never negative.
We say 
Effectively, all we're doing is removing the negative sign.
I think what you meant was
(2x - 5)² = 11 -- (1)
Square root both sides of (1), i.e.
√(2x - 5)² = ± √11 -- (2)
From (2), we have
2x - 5 = ± √11 -- (3)
By adding 5 to both sides in (3), we have
2x = 5 ± √11 -- (4)
Divide both sides of (4) by 2, and we obtain
x = (5 ± √11)/2 -- (5)
From (5), the solution set of (1) is
x = (5 + √11)/2, (5 - √11)/2 ...Ans.
