Mrs. Price purchases 24 tickets for the students in her class. Evaluate the expression for [tex]\( t = 24 \)[/tex].

[tex]\[ t(28 - 8) = \square(28 - 8) \][/tex]

[tex]\[ 24(28 - 8) = \square(28 - 8) \][/tex]



Answer :

Certainly! Let's solve the expression step-by-step.

We are given the expression:
[tex]\[ t(28 - 8) \][/tex]
and the value of [tex]\( t \)[/tex] is 24.

First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
[tex]\[ 28 - 8 = 20 \][/tex]

Next, substitute the value of [tex]\( t \)[/tex] into the expression:
[tex]\[ 24 \times (28 - 8) \][/tex]

Since we simplified [tex]\( 28 - 8 \)[/tex] to 20, the expression now is:
[tex]\[ 24 \times 20 \][/tex]

Finally, multiply 24 by 20:
[tex]\[ 24 \times 20 = 480 \][/tex]

Therefore, the result of the expression [tex]\( t(28 - 8) \)[/tex] when [tex]\( t = 24 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[ 480 \][/tex]

So, Mrs. Price's evaluated expression is:
[tex]\[ \boxed{480} \][/tex]
