Question

smokeysthename · Answer

the question does not make sense. what are you trying to find?

doc.brown · Answer

Is there any more to that question?

anonymous · Answer

Well no. Im trying to evaluate it... 
I'm lost too,

smokeysthename · Answer

if its giving you g=-2 then there has to be more to the equation. you might be missing something.

doc.brown · Answer

(-5)+(-6) = (-11)
If g = (-2) then g should be placed into an equation somewhere. Such as:
-5g-6g
=(-5)(-2)+(-6)(-2)
=10+12
=22

anonymous · Answer

Well here are my Nswer choices..... 4, or 16 or 10, or -13

smokeysthename · Answer

go back and check to make sure you're not missing anything.

doc.brown · Answer

Is the question
$$-5-g$$

smokeysthename · Answer

@doc.brown it can't be -5-g because -5-(-2) is not one of the answer choices

anonymous · Answer

This is exactly how it written out.... Evaluate -5g - for g=-2 that's what it says. No further information.....

smokeysthename · Answer

makes more since now. -5(-2) = 10

smokeysthename · Answer

sense*

anonymous · Answer

Oops forgot a six in between - and for

smokeysthename · Answer

okay -5(-2)-6= 4

smokeysthename · Answer

you have to plug in -2 for g.

smokeysthename · Answer

if you look at what you originally posted, it says -5-6 that's why we were confused

anonymous · Answer

So it's like this -5g - 6 for g= -2

doc.brown · Answer

$$-5g-6$$$$-5(-2)-6$$$$10-6$$$$=4$$

anonymous · Answer
