Answer: B

-14 - 2x - 10 + 3y + 8x - 16y

Put everything in order so it is easy to combine like terms.

-2x + 8x + 3y - 16y - 14 - 10

Combine like terms. That means that you should add both x's together, add both y's together, and add both numbers together.

6x - 13y - 24

B is your answer! If you are confused on why B looks different, it is becuase the variables/numbers are in mixed up places. I hope this helps you!
