Question

If x = 2 and y = 4, then (2x + 3y) ÷ 4 - 2 = A) 10 B) 9 C) 8 D) 2

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{2}}}}}$

Option D is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, x = 2 and y = 4

$\sf{(2x + 3y) \div 4 - 2}$

plug the value of x and y

⇒$\sf{ (2 \times 2 + 3 \times 4) \div 4 - 2}$

Multiply the numbers which are inside the bracket

⇒$\sf{(4 + 12) \div 4 - 2}$

Add the numbers which are inside the bracket

⇒$\sf{16 \div 4 - 2}$

Divide 16 by 4

⇒$\sf{4 - 2}$

Subtract 2 from 4

⇒$\sf{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

2 (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x+3y)÷4-2 you replace the variables with the matching numbers, and then multiply them by the number next to them.

(4+12)÷4-2 you add the numbers together

16÷4-2 you divide 16 by 4

4-2 you subtract to

2 this is your answer
