Write the expression 5x2 – 4 – 3x2 + 6x + 8 + 5x – 13 in its simplified form. Find its value when x = -2

Answer»

The given algebraic expression 

= 5x2 – 4 – 3x2 + 6x + 8 + 5x – 13.

= (5x2 – 3x2) (6x + 5x) + (-4 – 13)

= 2x2 + 11x – 17

When x = – 2. then the value of 2x2+ 11x – 17 

= 2(- 2)2 + 11(-2) – 17

= 2 × 4 – 22 – 17

= 8 – 39

= – 31
