Answer:

-19

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we already have the values of the variables and the equation, all we have to do is plug in the numbers.

-b + 3x

-(4) + 3(-5)

-4 + (-15)

-4 - 15

-19

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf -19}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to evaluate the following expression.

[tex]-b+3x[/tex]

We know the b is equal to 4, and x is equal to -5.

  • b=4
  • x=-5

We can substitute the values into the expression.

[tex]-(4) + 3(-5)[/tex]

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. Multiply first. We multiply -1 and 4, then 3 and -5.

[tex][-1 *4] + 3(-5)[/tex]

[tex]-4+ [3*(-5)][/tex]

[tex]-4+-15[/tex]

Add.

[tex]-19[/tex]

The expression -b+3x is equal to -19 when b equals 4 and x equals -5.
