The answer for "-2a + 3b" is 5.

To solve this equation, you must first find "a" and "b". A^3 times B^2 = 72. In this case, a = 2 (2*2*2 = 8) and b = 3 (3*3 = 9) since their outcomes multiplied together equal 72.

Now you fill in for "a" and "b". "-2*2 + 3*3" before adding you do all the multiplying, which leaves "-4 + 9". Combining like terms gives you 5.

I hope this helps!!

To solve the problem:

<span>Let f = distance one way distance on level ground</span>

<span>
Let h = distance rode on the hill</span>

<span>
Write a time equation; where Time = distance/speed:</span>

<span>

level time + uphill time + downhill time + level time = 1hr</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>f/9 + h/6 + h/18 + f/9 = 1 hr</span>

<span>

Multiply equation by 18 to get rid of the denominators</span>

<span>
</span>

 

2f + 3h + h + 2f = 18


4f + 4h = 18


Simplify by dividing this by 4


<span>f + h = 4.5 miles is took her to get to Jon’s house.</span>
