Q. Evaluate the expression for v=9.5 and w=−12.Write your answer as a decimal or whole number.v+w−10.4= _____
Substitute Values: Substitute the given values for v and w into the expression.Expression: v+w−10.4Substitute v=9.5 and w=–12 into the expression.Expression after substitution: 9.5+(–12)−10.4
Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression by adding v and w.Add 9.5 and –12.Calculation: 9.5+(–12)=–2.5
Subtract from Result: Subtract 10.4 from the result obtained in the previous step.Subtract 10.4 from −2.5.Calculation: −2.5−10.4=−12.9
