X - y = -2
y = -x - 2
What is the solution

x = -2

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty hard process, but let me explain:

First, solve for y.

Substitute -x - 2 for y in x - y = -2:

Then, simplify both sides of the equation.

x - y = -2

x - (-x - 2) = -2

After, add -2 to both sides of the equation.

2x + 2 = -2

2x + 2 + -2 = -2 + -2

Next, divided both sides by 2.

2x/2 = -4/2

After that, substitute -2 for x in y = -x - 2:

You must simplify both sides of the equation.

y = -x - 2

y = -(-2) - 2

y = 0

Sorry if this is long and confusing, but I hope this helps!!

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
