6-2(x-y)= 3x + 5 a. 5x -2y =-1 b 5x + 2y = 1 c 2x - 5y = 1 d 5x -2y = 1

In standard form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First distribute the -2 to x and -y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not good with this at all haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no -2(x-y)= -2x -(-2)y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the 2 negatives turn into a positive and the entire equation now looks like 6-2x-2y = 3x +5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you solve from there?
