Step-by-step explanation:
If you want the "root" of the equation...
First get y by itself on one side. You should get y = - x - 8.
Notice that this is the equation of a straight line.
Then let y = 0, and solve for x. You should get x = -8.
So the solution or "root" of the equation is at the point (-8,0)
Answer:
X=0, y=0, x=3
Put the values into the equation. You should get -4,0
-2(-4) –2(0)=8
