Question

  1. if \\(x = 5\\) and \\(y = -2\\), then \\(\frac{10y}{x} + 3y^2 =\\)
  • 32
  • 8
  • -16
  • \\(-\frac{8}{5}\\)
  • 16

Explanation:

Substitute the given values into the expression

$$ \frac{10(-2)}{5} + 3(-2)^2 $$

Evaluate the first term

$$ \frac{-20}{5} = -4 $$

Evaluate the second term and sum the results

$$ 3(4) = 12 $$
$$ -4 + 12 = 8 $$

Answer:

  • (A) 32
  • (B) 8 (Correct answer)
  • (C) -16
  • (D) \(-\frac{8}{5}\)
  • (E) 16
