Evaluate each algebraic expression for a = 9

7a + 4 4a – 2 4 + 5a 10a - 15

12a – 5 6 + 8a 6a – 17 8a + 5

Evaluate each algebraic expression for b = 8

6b + 12 8b – 5 4b – 3 3b + 4

6b - 13 12b – 3 2 + 5b 2b – 1

Evaluate each algebraic expression for c = 7

10c + 5 7c - 12 5c + 9 2c + 1

10c – 10 5c + 3 8c – 15 11c - 12

Evaluate each algebraic expression for d = 7

2 × (8 + d) 5 ×(d – 1) d × (8 + 2) 9 × (d - 7)
