Answer:

Jack is incorrect. The correct answer is 2

Explanation:

The question is given as:

4x-24 / (y+w) where x=5, y=3 and w= -5

Substitute values of x, y and w in the equation as;

4*5 - 24 / (3+-5)

20 - 24 / (-2)

-4 / -2 = 2

Jack's answer is 7 which is wrong. The correct answer is 2

2 is correct because you have substituted the real values of x,y and w in the expression and performed the operation right.
