Question

Answer 1

Explanation:

13

Answer 2

y = -3

Explanation:

In order to answer this, we are going to have to do some division and multiplication. First, we will have to divide -42 by 14 to see how many times 14 can fit into -42:

-42 / 14 = -3

Then, we will replace y with -3 to make sure that this is correct:

14 (-3) = -42

-42 = -42

So, y = -3 is the answer.

Hope this helps! :)
