given the 2 equations
2x + y = - 2 → (1)
x + y = 5 → (2)
subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate y
(2x - x ) + (y - y ) = (- 2 - 5 )
x + 0 = - 7 ⇒ x = - 7
substitute x = - 7 in either of the 2 equations and solve for y
(2) : - 7 + y = 5 ( add 7 to both sides )
y = 5 + 7 = 12 → A
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: Steve's bedroom has the greater area.
Step-by-step explanation: The formula for area is Area = Length x Width.
So all you have to do to figure this out is multiply the Width of the rooms by the length.
So Steve's room is 12ft X 13ft = 156ft
Ricardo's room is 8ft X 14ft = 112ft
156ft > 112ft
Steve's room has a greater area.

280 students have a total of 560 points 
There 60 more boys(x+60) complete than girls(x)
2*(x+60)+2*x= 560
number of girl =x =110   
girl point =110*2= 220
