Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
all we have to do is plug in 2 for x into the equation:
-8(2) + 5 -2(2) -4 + 5(2)
-16 + 5 -4 -4 + 10
-11 -8 + 10
-19 + 10
the answer is
-9
to simplify the equation we’ll combine like terms
-8x + 5 -2x -4 + 5x
-10x + 1 + 5x
-5x + 1
now we’ll plug in 2 for x
-5(2) + 1
-10 + 1
the answer is still
-9
