Question

Evaluate the expression when$p=12 \text{and} q=15$.

8. $16 q$

Short answer

The value of the expression 16qis 240

Step-by-step solution

Step 1: What is an algebraic expression?

In mathematics, a variable (usually an English alphabet) standing for an unknown value in any equation or Algebraic Expression. In general we used x, y, z or t (time) , d (distance) and r for radius.

Algebraic expressions include at least one variable and at least one operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division).

For example, 7(6y + 9z) is an algebraic expression.

Example of the variable, constant term and the coefficient 

Step 3: Evaluate the expression 16 q when q = 15  

Consider, the expression provided in the question: $\text{16} \text{q}$

To determine the value of $\text{16} \text{q}$when$q=15$, it is needed to substitute15 for q

The expression will be obtained as: $\text{16} \text{q} = 16 · 15 = 240 \text{Multiply}$

The value of the expression 16qis 240
