Evaluate each expression when a = -4 and b = 3 1.) ab 2.) 2a + 3b 2.) 2(a - b)

Svet_ta [14]

1) -12

ab is a times b. We plug in the numbers (-4)*(3) which equals -12.

2) 1

We plug in -4 for a, and 3 for b into the equation.

We get 2(-4) + 3(3)

2*-4 is -8. 3*3 is 9. We add them both, and -8+9 equals 1.

3) -14

We plug in -4 for a, and 3 for b into the equation.

2(-4-3)

-4-3 is -7. -7*2 equals -14.

Three consecutive even numbers add up to a number between 100 and 120 what might the number be?

Rzqust [24]

The number can be 102, 108, or 114. They can all be formed that way.

32 + 34 + 36 = 102
34 + 36 + 38 = 108
36 + 38 + 40 = 114

The next one is 120 . . . . . 38 + 40 + 42
