Question

The expression below is equal to -20c plus a constant term. -8(2.5c-4.25)+5.25. What is the value of the constant term?

Answer 1

Answer:

39.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression -8(2.5c-4.25)+5.25. On expansion;

$= -8(2.5c-4.25)+5.25\\= -20c+34 +5.25\\= -20c + 39.25$.

The resulting expressing after expanding is $-20c + 39.25$. The constant value in the expression is the value that has no variable 'c' attached. The value of the constant term is therefore 39.25
