Substituting Values into Equations and Expressions

Work out the value the expression when

e = 3, f = 2, g = -4 and h = -2.

3 (e + f)

Work out the value the expression when e = 3, f = 2, g = -4 and h = -2. 3(e + f) - 5 (e - f)

Work out the value the expression when

e = 3, f = 2, g = -4 and h = -2.

h (2f + g)

Work out the value the expression when

e = 3, f = 2, g = -4 and h = -2.

(ef)/h - g

• x=7 and x=−4

Jada is working on solving a quadratic equation. She thinks that her solution is correct because substituting 5 for p in the original expression p^2- 5p gives 25-25 or 0. Explain the mistake that Jada made and show the correct solutions.

A piecewise function, p, is defined by this rule: p(x)=x-1, x≤−2; 2x-1, x>−2. Find the value of p at each given input.

• p(-20)=-21
