Plug in 2 for x, and -4 for y
2(2)² + 3(2)(-4) - (-4)²
2² = 4(2) = 8
3(2) = 6(-4) = -24
-4² = 16
8 - 24 - 16 = answer
Simplify.
answer = 8 - 40
answer = -32
-32 is your answer
hope this helps
For the lines to be parallel the two angles need to be equal to each other:
128-x = x
Add 1x to both sides
128 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2:
X = 128/2
X = 64
Answer: x = 64
The number on the left is the x, and the number on the right is the y. so if the x is negative, then it would be on the x axis line. and you always use the x line first.
4 is the answer, divide both sides by 3 and get 4
