Answer 1

To find the value of \( y \) when \( x = -10 \) using the equation \( y = 2x + 3 \), we will substitute \( -10 \) for \( x \).

Starting with the equation:

\[ y = 2x + 3 \]

Substituting \( x = -10 \):

\[ y = 2(-10) + 3 \]

Calculating this:

\[ y = -20 + 3 \] \[ y = -17 \]

So, when \( x = -10 \), the value of \( y \) is:

\[ y = -17 \]
