ok i get -8
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Where do you get -8 from?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2 - 10
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
But the 2 has an "x" multiplying it, that's why they write it "2x"?
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
2x - y = 10

First subtract 10 from both sides of the equation: 2x - y = 10
2x - y = 10
2x - y - 10 = 10 -10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Now what do you get?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-20
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
10 - 10 =?= -20

-10-10=-20
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
First subtract 10 from both sides of the equation: 2x - y = 10
2x - y = 10
2x - y - 10 = 10 -10
