If x=2

Question

and y=6
, then what does 2y−2xy+x=
?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the value of the expression \(2y - 2xy + x\) when \(x = 2\) and \(y = 6\), we can substitute the values of \(x\) and \(y\) into the expression.

Let’s calculate it step by step:

1. Substitute \(x = 2\) and \(y = 6\) into the expression: \[ 2y - 2xy + x = 2(6) - 2(2)(6) + 2 \]

2. Calculate \(2y\): \[ 2(6) = 12 \]

3. Calculate \(2xy\): \[ 2(2)(6) = 24 \]

4. Now substitute these values back into the expression: \[ 12 - 24 + 2 \]

5. Now perform the subtraction and addition: \[ 12 - 24 = -12 \] \[ -12 + 2 = -10 \]

Therefore, the value of the expression \(2y - 2xy + x\) when \(x = 2\) and \(y = 6\) is \(-10\).
