2. What is the value of

4k + 6 (j - 2) when k = 3 and j = 5?

A. 26
B. 30
C. 40
d. 108

I got 61 and I'm sooo confused!!

substituting the values for the letters, you have

4(3) + 6 (5 - 2)
= 12 + 6(3)
= 12 + 18
= 30

How ever did you get 61?

4k + 6 (j - 2) when k = 3 and j = 5?

4k = 12
6 (5 - 2) = 18

I got 61 because I literally put the 3 next to 4 but thanks for the help! :)

Ms. Sue you wrong

18+12=30. The same answer of oobleck said.

I sent my work with 30 as an answer and my tacher said it was wrong help! I've checked it many times my parents even checked it for me and said it was right.

you have to put the 3 by the 4 and put the 5 by the 6

4k + 6(j - 2 ) = 40
