Evaluating an expression means either to solve the expressions or to simply it.
Solving an expression:
2 - (10 + 5)
A simply expression. After doing the math the answer comes out as -3.
2x + 3x
This is an algebraic expression. This means we have variables like x and y.
In this case, we can only simplify it. Because we don't know what x is equal to.
Because they are like terms (which means they have the variable) we can add them to together.
2x + 3x = 5x

EDIT:
Now what if you have an expression like this:
5x + 5m where x=4 and m=8
In mathematics, something like 5x is the same difference as 5 * x.
And x is just a placeholder for a number or for another variable.
And in this equation, x is equal to 4. So, we just replace x with 4.
5(4) + 5m
Same this with m. The variable m is equal to 8.
5(4) + 5(8)
We can solve!
5(4) + 5(8) = 20 + 40 = 60
Our answer is 60.
Answer:
D. y=162.5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.75 ->25
4.875->y
y= (4.875*25)/0.75
y=162.5
Area of a rectangle = length (l) * width (w)
A = 30ft * 20ft
A = 600 sq ft
Now the width of a sidewalk that surroundeds it = 3 ft
so now the area of the rectangle with sidewalk= 30+3ft * 20+3ft
A = (33*23) ft
A = 759 sg ft
Area of the sidewalk = 759 - 600
A = 159 sq ft
So you need to use the distributive property. First, solve inside the parentheses. So, 8x times 4y is 32xy, then multiply that by 3 to get 96xy, now multiply 96xy by 2 to get your final answer of 192xy.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
100 - 35 = 55 dollars remaining
55/20 = 3.25 hours until no money
