Question

Evaluate the expression for the given value of x
-2/3x + 12 for x = -3

Answer 1

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

For this equation you want to replace all the x with -3 which will make the equation:

-2/3(-3) + 12 =

6/3 + 12 =

2 + 12 = 14

Answer 2

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute -3 for x in (-2/3x) + 12:

                                  (-2/3)(-3) + 12, or

                                        2       + 12 = 14

Note that we must multiply (-2/3) and (-3) together BEFORE adding 12.
