Question Which symbol replaces the box to make the statement true? 2⋅18−18□2⋅[28−3⋅(2+4)] A. < B. = C. >
Answer: First I would simplify each side in order to determine the symbol. 2 × 18 – 18 ? 2 × [28 – 3(2 +4)] I will simplify the left side first. Multiply 2 and 18 36 – 18 ? 2 × [28 – 3(2+4)] 18 ? 2 × [28 – 3(2 + 4)] Now simplify the right side. Add 2 and 4 18 ? 2 × [28 – 3(6)] Next multiply 3 and 6 18 ? 2 × [28 – 18] 18 ? 2 × 10 18 ? 20 18 < 20 Your answer is C because 18 is less than 20 First find the value of the give expression 2(a + 6) Since a = 2, plug in 2 for a 2(2 + 6) 2(8) = 16 A.) 2a + a² Plug in 2 for a 2(2) + (2)² 4 + 4 = 8 B.) 4a + 8 Plug in 2 for a 4(2) + 8 8 + 8 = 16 Neither A or B have a value greater than the given expression Step-by-step explanation: Reply
The answer is 16 and plsss mark me as a brainliest
