C

Listen, sweetheart, you really need to learn to plug these values in for yourself.  Now replace x with 0 and y with 4 and see if it makes the sentence true.

anonymous · Answer

4 + 4*2 = 12

12 > 8

mertsj · Answer

Then move on and replace x with -2 and y with 3 .  If that doesn't work, try C  by replacing x and y both with 4

mertsj · Answer

Then you will see that moneybird is right and that sentence is not true so you will choose C

Kudos to Merts.

@Moneybird, I can't believe you're still in the "hand out answers" business. Do you really find it that satisfying, vs. helping show someone the way to find the answer themselves?

Moneybird is a strange bird like that. 
I think he just likes doing the problems himself.

i agree with turning test! some people just like putting themselves to the test and like doing math. when people give me the answers i like figuring it out by myself how they get the answer. i  dont just get the answers thts why i get a good grade on my test i just dont get the answer. Merry christmas everyone!!!.
