The expression to evaluate is:


3+a+4\mleft(8-b\mright)

When

a = 5 and b = 6

We simply plug in the values of 5 and 6, into a and b respectivly. And do algebra to get our answer. The process is shown below:


\begin{gathered} 3+a+4\mleft(8-b\mright) \\ 3+5+4\mleft(8-6\mright) \\ 3+5+4(2) \\ 3+5+8 \\ 16 \end{gathered}

The answer is 16.
