Answer:

Your answer will be (-9)

This is how I got my answer-

2(2-y)-x

2(2-8)-(-3)

2 - 8= (-6)

2 × (-6) = (-12)

(-12) - (-3) = (-9)

Answer:

-9

Explanation:

y = 8

x = -3

  • 2(2-y)-x = ⇒ replace x and y with their values
  • 2(2 - 8) - (-3) = ⇒ solve parenthesis
  • 2(-6) + 3 = ⇒ multiply
  • -12 + 3= ⇒ add
  • - 9 ⇒ answer
