When -2 is substituted for x, in the equation y=x2+1 what is y.

5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) so lets substitute -2 as x:

y=(-2)^2+1

(-2)^2=-2*-2=4

hence

y=4+1

y=5

Hope this helps

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in the x value,  y = -2(2) + 1

simplify, y = -4 + 1

simply again,  y = -3

we can plug the y and x in to make sure it is equal

-3 =  -2(2) + 1

simplify, -3 = -4 + 1

simplify again, -3 = -3

add 3 to both sides, 0 = 0

one possible answer is -3 for y, and -2 for x

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
