Question

(2a+b)^2÷(3b-1) when a= -2 and b=5

Answer 1

Evaluate (2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) where a = -2 and b = 5:
(2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) = (5 - 2×2)^2/(3×5 - 1)

3×5 = 15:
(5 - 2×2)^2/(15 - 1)

 | 1 | 5
- | | 1
 | 1 | 4:
(5 - 2×2)^2/14

2 (-2) = -4:
(-4 + 5)^2/14

5 - 4 = 1:
1^2/14

1^2 = 1:

Answer: 1/14
