Evaluate 4g - 12 when g = 5.

Answer 1

4g-12=8 because 4 times 5 equals 20 and 20 minus 12 equals 8

Answer 2

8

Explanation:

Plug in 5 for g in the expression, and solve:

4(g) - 12

g = 5

4(5) - 12

Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, multiply 4 with 5:

4 * 5 = 20

Next, subtract:

20 - 12 = 8

8 is your answer.
