Answer

Statement I: Substituting x = 2 and y = 3 in 4y + 3x:

= 4(3) + 3(2)

= 12 + 6

= 18

The value of the expression is 18, not 22. Hence, Statement I is false.

Statement II: By definition, an algebraic expression is a combination of terms connected by mathematical operations such as addition or subtraction. Hence, Statement II is true.

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
