Answer:
(0, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't quite know how to explain it, but I was taught that the number in the equation that doesn't have a variable, in this case -4, is the y-intercept. The order pair is (0, -4) because a y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis and the y-axis is located on the 0 of the x-axis.
If you were to factor you would do what my teacher likes to call reverse foil so it would look like this (x-9)(x+4) so what you do is you brainsrorm to see what multiplies what to get that and 9*4=36 so that is how you factor -36 to find the -9
Hope this helps if I'm correct if not I will try to find the answer
Answer:

*if you ever need to do more math like this, I suggest using desmos :)
A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.
B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20
Add equations
x=5
Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15
Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers
