Question

If b=7, what is the value of the expression2(10-b)?

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: Since we substitute the b with 7, 10-7= 3. Since the 2 is next to the parentheses, we multiply 3 by 2, getting 6.

Answer 2

Hey there!

2(10 - b)

= 2(10 - 7)

= 2(10) + 2(-7)

= 20 - 14

= 6

OR

2(10 - b)

= 2(10 - 7)

= 2(3)

= 6

Therefore, your answer should be: 6

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
