Evaluate Using the Given Value Evaluate 4-0.25g+0.5h when g=10 and h=5

Evaluate $4 - 0.25 g + 0.5 h$ when $g = 10$ and $h = 5$

Step 1

Replace the variable $g$ with $10$ in the expression.

$4 - 0.25 \cdot 10 + 0.5 h$

Step 2

Replace the variable $h$ with $5$ in the expression.

$4 - 0.25 \cdot 10 + 0.5 (5)$

Step 3

Simplify each term.

Multiply $- 0.25$ by $10$ .

$4 - 2.5 + 0.5 (5)$

Multiply $0.5$ by $5$ .

$4 - 2.5 + 2.5$

Step 4

Simplify by adding and subtracting.

Subtract $2.5$ from $4$ .

$1.5 + 2.5$

Add $1.5$ and $2.5$ .

$4$
