Question

What is the value of the expression when s=2 and t=1.5 -3|5-s3|+3t

Answer 1

-13.5 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The value of the given expression is -4.5

Explanation:

We need to find the value of the expression
`-3|5-s^3|+3t` when s=2 and t=1.5

Putting the values of s and t in the given expression.

So,

`-3|5-s^3|+3t=-3|5-(2)^3|+3* 1.5\\\\=-3|5-8|+4.5\\\\=-3|-3|+4.5`

We know that, |-a|=a

So,

`=-3|-3|+4.5\\\\=-3(3)+4.5\\\\=-9+4.5\\\\=-4.5`

So, the value of the given expression is -4.5
