Answer 2

Okay so lets solve for y.

y=-x+2

See what i did?

Answer 3

Yes, I think so. But if not I can refer to my notes on that part. It's solving the questions that I was asked that I am having trouble with. But please continue! : )

Answer 4

@Rebecca are you still there?

Answer 5

Okay now we plug it in for y in the other equation.

Answer 6

Ok!

4x+4(-x+2)=8

Solve for x.

Answer 8

i'm sorry I don't understand and I'm very confused. Because I don't think I have done math like that before. Yikes! Thats not good on my behalf.

Answer 9

It's fine. Thanks for being honest.

Answer 10

Your welcome! Can you help me understand it? Please?

Answer 11

Let's break it down.

What's 4(-x+2)=(4*-x)+(4*2)

Answer 12

I don't know. I don't even now what -x is? I'm sorry that I am so confused.

Answer 13

It's okay.

Example -x*3=-3x
-x*-5=5x

etc

What's -x*4=?

Answer 14

I have no idea, but thanks for the help anyways. I'm saying that because I know that there is nothing further you can do. Because then that is against codes.

Answer 15

Look at what i just said

If -x*3=-3x then what is -x*4=?

Answer 16

-4x?
