what's the answer​

Answer 1

Do the order of operations after you plug everything in. If that doesn't help do a proof.

6x-y turns into 6(-3)-2. Do parenthesis () first, (-18)-2. You will get the finally answer of -20.

Answer 2

-20

Explanation:

6x - y

Put the values of x = -3 and y = 2 to the expression:

6(-3) - 2 = -18 - 2 = -20
