Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute the values for a and b into the expression
20 - 3a + 2b
= 20 - 3(5) + 2(6)
= 20 - 15 + 12
= 5 + 12
= 17

Given the expression:-
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{20-3a+2b}[/tex]
To find:-
- The simplified expression
What to do:-
- Substitute 5 for a and 2 for b:-
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{20-3(5)+2(6)}[/tex]
On simplification,
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{20-15+12}[/tex]
On further simplification,
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{5+12}[/tex]
Finally, We get:-
[tex]\longmapsto\sf{17}[/tex]
Good luck with your studies. [tex]\ddot\smile[/tex]
