A+b+c=408
a=a
b=7+a
c=5+a
a+(7+a)+(5+a)=408
3a+12=408
3a=396
a=132

Abel has $132
Belle has $139
Cindy has $137

Prove:
132+139+137=408

3(2+7) - 9 x 7 = 3+8 x 2 x 2 - 4 = 16 ÷ 2 x 5 x 3 ÷ 6 = Please answer! ✨✨

Answer:

At first, we have 3 expressions that are equal.

$3(2+7) - 9 \cdot 7= 3+8 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 - 4$

$6+21 - 63= 3+32 - 4$

$-36=31$

$-36\neq 31$

This is not true.

Evaluate the expression 263 + 5 when b = 3.<br> 263 +5 = 2(3): +5<br> =

ExtremeBDS [4]

Given:

The expression is:

$2b^3+5$

To find:

The value of the given expression when $b=3$ .

Solution:

We have,

$2b^3+5$

Substituting $b=3$ in the above expression, we get

$2b^3+5=2(3)^3+5$

$2b^3+5=2(27)+5$

$2b^3+5=54+5$

$2b^3+5=59$

Therefore, the value of given expression at $b=3$ is 59.
