X - (-20) = 5
When you subtract a negative, change it to addition:
X + 20 = 5
Subtract 20 from both sides:
X = -15
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equations


solving the system of the equation by elimination method








solve 45y=5 for y:




solve
for x:


Add 36 to both sides





Equation: x² - (x - y)² * y
Substitute values for x and y into equation.
-> (-5)² - ( (-5) - (-8) )² * (-8)
-> 25 - (-5 + 8)² * (-8)
-> 25 - (3)² * (-8)
-> 25 - 9 * (-8)
-> 25 - (-72)
-> 25 + 72
-> 97
