Answer:
−6x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
Try this option:
if x+y=-9 is I (one)
and x+2y=-25 is II (two), then
if II-I, then (x+2y)-(x+y)=-25+9 ⇔ y=-16.
Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!
