Question

For all real values of m,
8 + 3(m - 5) =?

Answer 1

Answer:

We have the value as 3m-7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that we have the real number m. Now we are required to find the simplified form or the value of the expression: $8 + 3(m - 5)$

Thus we can write it as:

$8 + 3(m - 5)\\=8 + 3m-3\cdot \:5$

Here we have to use the property:

$a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac$

So now we have:

$8 + 3m-3\cdot \:5\\=8+3m-15\\=3m-7$

So this is the required final value of the expression.
