Find the value of expression: 2a - 2b - 10 + 4a + b, if a = 5 and b = 1.
-1
19
-19
20
Simplify the expression:2a−2b−10+4a+b =(2a+4a)+(−2b+b)−10=6a−b−10
Substituting a=5 and b=1 in the above expression,
6a−b−10 =(6×5)−1−10 =30−11 =19
Question 7 (v)
Simplify these expressions and find their values if x = 3, a = -1, b = -2: 2a - 2b - 4 - 5 + a
Simplify these expressions and find their values if x = 3, a = − 1, b = − 2.
(i) 3x − 5 − x + 9 (ii) 2 − 8x + 4x + 4
(iii) 3a + 5 − 8a + 1 (iv) 10 − 3b − 4 − 5b
(v) 2a − 2b − 4 − 5 + a
Find the value of expression 2a - 2b - 4 + a + b, taking a = 2 and b = 3.
