10 is your answer

Answer:

All you need to do is plug the values and then simplify!

[tex] \large{ \tt{ - 2x + 3y}}[/tex]

  • Plug the value of x and y :

[tex] \longrightarrow \: \large{ \tt{ - 2 \times ( - 2) + 3 \times ( - 5)}}[/tex]

  • When negative integer is multiplied by negative integers , we get positive integer & when positive integer is multiplied by negative integer , we get negative integer.

[tex] \longrightarrow \large{ \tt4 + ( - 15){}}[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow \large{ \tt{4 - 15}}[/tex]

[tex] \longrightarrow{ \large{ \boxed{ \tt{ - 11}}}}[/tex]

  • Hence , Our simplified answer is -11 .
