Answer: It's 35.5 and 38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 74 by 3 giving you 71.

Next, divide 71 by 2; it gives you 35.5 (that's your first number).

Then, add the 3 that you took away to 35.5 and get 38.5 (that's your second number).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the expression x(y-z), and we want to evaluate it if x=3, y=9, and z=2

As we're given the values of the variables, we can substitute those values into the expression to find out what the value of the expression is.

So substitute 3 as x, 9 as y, and 2 as z in the expression above

x(y-z)

3(9-2)

Now we must follow the order of operations; start by subtracting 2 from 9 (do the stuff inside the parentheses first)

3(7)

Now multiply 3 and 7 together
