Basically, we need to plug in the given values for the variables
x and
y into the given expression
1.3(x+2)-(y-6). First off, we can plug in all the given values into the expression, giving us
1.3(4+2)-(2-6). Now, perform the operations on the inside of the parentheses. Doing this, we get
1.3(6)-(-4). Now, we use the distributive property to simplify. This gives us
7.8+4. Finally, when we add the two numbers, we get
\boxed{11.8}. Hope this helped!
