Evaluate the expression for a=3, b=5, and c=10. (You will get a single number for your answer.).

6a+4b −3c=

1 answer

To evaluate the expression \(6a + 4b - 3c\) for \(a = 3\), \(b = 5\), and \(c = 10\), substitute the values of \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) into the expression.

\[ 6a + 4b - 3c = 6(3) + 4(5) - 3(10) \]

Calculating each term:

\[ 6(3) = 18 \]

\[ 4(5) = 20 \]

\[ 3(10) = 30 \]

Now substitute these results back into the expression:

\[ 18 + 20 - 30 \]

Now perform the addition and subtraction:

\[ 18 + 20 = 38 \]

\[ 38 - 30 = 8 \]

Thus, the value of the expression is \(\boxed{8}\).
