If x = 5 and y = - 4 what is 2xy

-40

Step-by-step explanation:

You would insert x and the y values in the equation which would be ...

2 (5) (-4)

Once you simplify it ...

10 (-4)

you get ten by doing 2 x 5

and simplify it agian ...

-40

10 times - 4 is - 40

The answer is - 40

2xy = - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

when x = 5, y = - 4

2 (5) (-4)

= - 40
