Part (a): Evaluate the following expressions for x=2x = 2

  1. 10x2\frac{10x}{2}

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 10×22=202=10\frac{10 \times 2}{2} = \frac{20}{2} = 10
  2. 7x16\frac{7x}{16}

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 7×216=1416=78\frac{7 \times 2}{16} = \frac{14}{16} = \frac{7}{8}
  3. 18x4\frac{18 - x}{4}

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 1824=164=4\frac{18 - 2}{4} = \frac{16}{4} = 4
  4. 36x\frac{36}{x}

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 362=18\frac{36}{2} = 18
  5. 5x25x - 2

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 5×22=102=85 \times 2 - 2 = 10 - 2 = 8
  6. 6x+286x + 28

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 6×2+28=12+28=406 \times 2 + 28 = 12 + 28 = 40
  7. 2x32x - 3

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 2×23=43=12 \times 2 - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1
  8. 9x22x+39x^2 - 2x + 3

    • Substitute x=2x = 2: 9×222×2+3=9×44+3=364+3=359 \times 2^2 - 2 \times 2 + 3 = 9 \times 4 - 4 + 3 = 36 - 4 + 3 = 35

Part (b): Evaluate the following expressions for x=3,y=5x = 3, y = 5

  1. x+2x+yx + 2x + y

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 3+2×3+5=3+6+5=143 + 2 \times 3 + 5 = 3 + 6 + 5 = 14
  2. 2x2+2xy2x^2 + 2xy

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 2×32+2×3×5=2×9+30=18+30=482 \times 3^2 + 2 \times 3 \times 5 = 2 \times 9 + 30 = 18 + 30 = 48
  3. x2yx^2 - y

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 325=95=43^2 - 5 = 9 - 5 = 4
  4. 3x3y3x - 3y

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 3×33×5=915=63 \times 3 - 3 \times 5 = 9 - 15 = -6
  5. 94xy9 - 4x - y

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 94×35=9125=89 - 4 \times 3 - 5 = 9 - 12 - 5 = -8
  6. 9x+y+19x + y + 1

    • Substitute x=3x = 3 and y=5y = 5: 9×3+5+1=27+5+1=339 \times 3 + 5 + 1 = 27 + 5 + 1 = 33

Part (c): Evaluate the following expressions for a=1,b=4a = 1, b = 4

  1. 6ab\frac{6a}{b}

    • Substitute a=1a = 1 and b=4b = 4: 6×14=64=32\frac{6 \times 1}{4} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}
  2. aba+b\frac{ab}{a + b}

    • Substitute a=1a = 1 and b=4b = 4: 1×41+4=45\frac{1 \times 4}{1 + 4} = \frac{4}{5}
  3. a2+b1a^2 + b - 1

    • Substitute a=1a = 1 and b=4b = 4: 12+41=1+41=41^2 + 4 - 1 = 1 + 4 - 1 = 4

Would you like to go over any specific part in more detail or have any questions?

Here are 5 additional related questions you can try:

  1. How would you evaluate the expression 4x+3y2z4x + 3y - 2z if x=1x = 1, y=2y = 2, and z=3z = 3?
  2. Can you simplify and evaluate the expression 2(a+b)+3b2(a + b) + 3b when a=3a = 3 and b=5b = 5?
  3. What happens if you substitute negative values for xx and yy in the expression x2yx^2 - y?
  4. How do you approach evaluating an expression that contains multiple variables and exponents, like 2x3+3y2z2x^3 + 3y^2 - z?
  5. If you need to evaluate an expression like 3x+4yxy\frac{3x + 4y}{x - y}, what happens when x=yx = y?

Tip: Always double-check your substitutions to avoid simple mistakes when working with algebraic expressions.
