If p = 5 and q = 2, what is the value of the expression 3p - 2q?
Correct: B
To evaluate the expression, substitute the given values for p and q into the expression.
Substitute p = 5: 3(5) - 2q = 15 - 2q
Substitute q = 2: 15 - 2(2) = 15 - 4
Calculate the final result: 15 - 4 = 11
So, the value of the expression is 11.
