Question

Which of the following is a solution to the equation:

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is the third one where x=6 and y= -4

Explanation:

Replace x and y with 6 and -4, so it becomes

2(6) = -5(-4) - 8

Then solve. 2×6 is 12 and -5×(-4) is 20, since two negatives make a positive. Then bring down -8

12 = 20 - 8

12 = 12
