Answer:
Product of -2 and 5 is -2 times 5, or 5 times -2 (5 * -2).
You can think of this as 5 lots of -2.
If each (-) is a negative,
-2 = (-)(-)
5* -2 =
(-)(-) (-)(-) (-)(-)
(-)(-) (-)(-)
= -10

This is PEMDAS as well as order of operations and or parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. Multiplication and division go together, so you do whichever one comes first. Same goes to addition and subtraction. A way to remember the order is Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally.
<span>If x represent the number of nickels in the box and y represent the number of dimes in the box (note that x>0 and y>0), then the total value of x nickels is $5x and total value of y dimes is $10y. Adding these amounts of money you get that in money box was $</span><span><span>(5x+10y)</span>.</span>
<span> Sally knows that she has less than $20 in the box, then 5x+10y<2000 ($20=2000 cents).
</span>
Since this inequality is strict, then you should draw the dashed line 5x+10y=2000. The line divides coordinate plane into two parts.
Pick point (0,0) and consider to which part this point belongs. Since 5·0+10·0<2000, you can conclude that (0,0) is a solution of given inequality and belongs to needed part. Hence you should take the shaded part below the line for positive values of x and y.
