Evaluate the following expression at $$ x=-6 $$ $$ 5 x-8 $$

Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

1. Substitute $$ x = -6 $$ into the expression:
   $$
   5(-6) - 8
   $$
2. Multiply:
   $$
   5(-6) = -30
   $$
   
   So the expression becomes:
   $$
   -30 - 8
   $$
3. Perform the subtraction:
   $$
   -30 - 8 = -38
   $$

The evaluated expression is $$ -38 $$.
When $$ x = -6 $$, the expression $$ 5x - 8 $$ equals $$ -38 $$.

Evaluate the following expression at \( x=-6 \) \[ 5 x-8 \]
