Solve the algebraic expression given that .
Solve the algebraic expression \( 5x-6 \) given that \( x=0 \).
What will be the result of this algebraic expression:
\( 5x-6 \)
if we place
\( x=8 \)
What will be the result of this algebraic expression:
\( 5x-6 \)
if we place
\( x=-2 \)

Usually we do not know the value of the unknown variable and need to work it out.
However, in this case we know its value and so the first thing we will do is substitute it into the expression—that is, replace each with the value 0.
5*0-6=
0-6=-6
Therefore, the result is -6.

To answer the question we first need to understand what X is.
X is an unknown, meaning it's a symbol that represents another number, an unknown one, that could be there in its place.
Usually in exercises we'll need to calculate and discover what X is appropriate for each exercise,
but in this case the result is given to us: X=8
Therefore, we can substitute (plug in) the value 8 everywhere X appears in the exercise.
So we get:
5*8-6
40-6
34
34
