Evaluate the expression whenx=  -5,  y=3,  and  z=2.

2x  +  9y  +  5z

Short Answer

Expert verified

 2x  +  9y  +  5z  =  27.

Step by step solution

01

Step-1 – What are real numbers? 

Real numbers are simply the combination of Whole numbers, Integers, Rational and Irrational numbers in the number system.

02

Step-2 – Associative Property of Addition of Real Numbers: 

Suppose a, b, and c is three real numbers.

Associative property of Addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)

If you are adding three real numbers, the sum is always the same regardless of their grouping.

Example: (11+12) + 13 = 11 + (12+13) = 36

03

Step-3 – Evaluate the expression

Associative property of Addition states, if you are adding three real numbers, the sum is always the same regardless of their grouping.

Evaluate the expression:

To evaluate the expression2x  +  9y  +  5z, substitute the value of x as – 5 and the value of y as 3 and z = 2 and addition of the numbers as shown below,
