Examples with solutions for The Domain of an Algebraic Expression: More than one unknown

Exercise #1

Solve the following expression:

8ab(7+a) 8a-b(7+a)

If

a=2,b=13 a=2,b=\frac{1}{3}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Note that we have two unknowns, a and b, and we are also given values for them,

Therefore, let's start by substituting these values in the equation instead of the unknowns:

8*2-1/3*(7+2)=

When there is a number before parentheses, it's like having a multiplication sign between them.

Let's start solving according to the order of operations, beginning with the parentheses:

8*2-1/3*(9)=

Now let's continue with multiplication and division:

16-9/3=
16-3=

Exercise #3

What will be the result of this algebraic expression:

8(x7)+4(62y) 8(x-7)+4(6-2y)

if we place

x=0,y=1 x=0,y=-1

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We have the given exercise, and it has two variables, X and Y.

In this case, we are given the values of these variables,

Therefore, what we need to do is substitute them in the relevant place in the exercise:

8(x-7)+4(6-2y)=

We know that x=0, so we will replace every X in the exercise with 0:

8(0-7)+4(6-2y)=
8(-7)+4(6-2y)=
-56+4(6-2y)=

We'll do the same thing with y, knowing that it equals -1

-56+4(6-2*(-1))=
-56+4(6-(-2)))=

-56+4(8)=

-56+32=

-24

And that's the solution!

Answer

24 -24

Exercise #4

What will be the result of this algebraic expression:

8ab(7+a) 8a-b(7+a)
if we place

a=12,b=213 a=-\frac{1}{2},b=\frac{2}{13}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the expression and the given values for a a and b b .
  • Step 2: Substitute the given values into the expression.
  • Step 3: Simplify the expression to find the result.

Let's work through the solution:

Given the algebraic expression:
8ab(7+a) 8a - b(7 + a) .

Substitute a=12 a = -\frac{1}{2} and b=213 b = \frac{2}{13} into the expression:

8(12)213(7+(12)) 8(-\frac{1}{2}) - \frac{2}{13}(7 + (-\frac{1}{2})) .

Start by simplifying each part:
8(12)=4 8(-\frac{1}{2}) = -4 .

Then simplify (7+(12)) (7 + (-\frac{1}{2})) :
712=612=132 7 - \frac{1}{2} = 6\frac{1}{2} = \frac{13}{2} .

Now substitute back:
4213×132 -4 - \frac{2}{13} \times \frac{13}{2} .

Simplify the multiplication:
213×132=1 \frac{2}{13} \times \frac{13}{2} = 1 .

Therefore, the expression simplifies to:
41=5 -4 - 1 = -5 .

Thus, the solution to the problem is 5-5.

Answer

5 -5

Exercise #5

What will be the result of this algebraic expression:

8(x7)+4(62y) 8(x-7)+4(6-2y)

if we place

x=8,y=5 x=8,y=5

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Substitute the given values into the expression.
  • Step 2: Simplify the expression step-by-step.
  • Step 3: Evaluate and find the final result.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: Substitute x=8 x = 8 and y=5 y = 5 into the expression:
8(x7)+4(62y)8(87)+4(62×5) 8(x-7) + 4(6-2y) \rightarrow 8(8-7) + 4(6-2 \times 5) .

Step 2: Simplify the expression:
- First, evaluate 8(87) 8(8-7) . Since (87)=1 (8-7) = 1 , we have:
8×1=8 8 \times 1 = 8 .

- Next, evaluate 4(62×5) 4(6-2 \times 5) . Compute 2×5=10 2 \times 5 = 10 , so 610=4 6 - 10 = -4 .
Therefore, 4×(4)=16 4 \times (-4) = -16 .

Step 3: Combine the terms:
8+(16)=816=8 8 + (-16) = 8 - 16 = -8 .

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 8 -8 .

Answer

8 -8

Exercise #6

What will be the result of this algebraic expression:

8(x7)+4(62y) 8(x-7)+4(6-2y)

if we place

x=7.1,y=58 x=7.1,y=\frac{5}{8}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem, we need to substitute the given values into the expression and simplify:

  • Step 1: Substitute x=7.1 x = 7.1 into the expression 8(x7) 8(x-7) .
    This gives us 8(7.17)=8(0.1)=0.8 8(7.1-7) = 8(0.1) = 0.8 .
  • Step 2: Substitute y=58 y = \frac{5}{8} into the expression 4(62y) 4(6-2y) .
    First, calculate 2y=2×58=108=1.25 2y = 2 \times \frac{5}{8} = \frac{10}{8} = 1.25 .
    Then, 61.25=4.75 6 - 1.25 = 4.75 .
    Finally, 4(4.75)=19 4(4.75) = 19 .
  • Step 3: Add the results from Step 1 and Step 2.
    That is 0.8+19=19.8 0.8 + 19 = 19.8 .

Therefore, the result of the expression 8(x7)+4(62y) 8(x-7) + 4(6-2y) with x=7.1 x = 7.1 and y=58 y = \frac{5}{8} is 19.8\mathbf{19.8}.
