Answer:
p = -1 q = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
a system of eq and solve for p and q ??? can do :)
Eq. 1) 8p + 2q = - 16
Eq. 2) 2p - q = 2
use Eq .2 and solve for q
2p - 2 = q
plug into Eq.1 with q
8p +2(2p - 2) = - 16
8p +4p -4 = -16
12p = - 12
p = -1
plug -1 into Eq. 1 for p and solve for q
8(-1) + 2q = - 16
-8 + 2q = - 16
2q = -8
q = -4
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first set of parentheses is unnecessary, so it can just be removed.

To remove the second set of parentheses, you must distribute the negative sign that is to its left. It changes every sign inside the parentheses.

Now you combine like terms.
