Answer:
x = 6, y = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
First we take the equations side by side and put them like this:
6x + 2y = 16
+ 2x - 2y = 32
8x = 48
Then solve for x.
x = 6
Then insert x back into either equation
2(5) - 2y = 32
10 - 2y = 32
solve for y,
y = -10
Negative 1 because 3 x 3 is 9 and -2 x 5 is -10. Therefore 9-10= negative 1
Choice B) Commutative Property is the answer
The commutative property of addition says that we can add two numbers in any order. For example: 2+3 = 5 and 3+2 = 5.
In general, the rule can be written as x+y = y+x. The x and y are simply placeholders for numbers. You can think of them as empty boxes to write a number inside. In this case, we have 7.2 for one of the boxes and -5.5 as the other value in the other box.
