Question

Evaluate 8a-1+0.5b8a−1+0.5b8, a, minus, 1, plus, 0, point, 5, b when a=\dfrac14a=

Answer 1

Answer: $6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following expression:

$8a-1+0.5b$

You need to substitute the given values of "a" and "b" into the expression. Notice that these values are:

$a=\frac{1}{4}\\\\b=10$

Then;

 $8a-1+0.5b=8(\frac{1}{4})-1+0.5(10)$

Now you must solve the multiplications:

$=\frac{8}{4}-1+5=2-1+5$

The final step is to add the numbers. Therefore, you get the following answer:

$=6$
