Practice Problems

Hints

  1. Let's substitute ‍$$j = 2$$ and ‍$$k = 6$$ into the expression.
    • $$3+jk+k^3$$
    • $$=3+(2)(6) + 6^3$$
    • $$=3+12+216$$
    • $$=231$$

  2. Let's substitute ‍$$r = 6$$ and ‍$$s = 5$$ into the expression.
    • $$8r - rs$$
    • $$=8(6) - (6)(5)$$
    • $$=48-30$$
    • $$=18$$

  3. Let's substitute ‍$$p = 7$$, $$m = 8$$ and ‍$$n = 2$$ into the expression.
    • ‍$$8 - \frac{m}{n} + p^2$$
    • ‍$$=8 - \frac{8}{2} + 7^2$$
    • $$=8 - 4 + 49$$
    • $$=53$$

  4. Let's substitute ‍$$g = 3$$ and ‍$$h = 6$$ into the expression.
    • $$\frac{9}{g} +2h +5$$
    • ‍$$=\frac{9}{3} +2(6) +5$$
    • $$=3+12+5$$
    • $$=20$$
