Answer

(i) Substituting x = 2 and y = 3 in the given expression, we get:

x ÷ y

= 2 ÷ 3

∴ x ÷ y = 23\dfrac{2}{3}

(ii) Substituting x = 2, y = 3 and z = 1 in the given expression, we get:

xyz\dfrac{xy}{z}

= (2)(3)1\dfrac{(2)(3)}{1}

= 61\dfrac{6}{1}

xyz\dfrac{xy}{z} = 6

(iii) Substituting x = 2, y = 3 and z = 1 in the given expression, we get:

2x+3y4z3xz=2(2)+3(3)4(1)3(2)1=4+9461=95=145\Rightarrow \dfrac{2x + 3y - 4z}{3x - z} \\[1em] = \dfrac{2(2) + 3(3) - 4(1)}{3(2) - 1} \\[1em] = \dfrac{4 + 9 - 4}{6 - 1} \\[1em] = \dfrac{9}{5} = 1\dfrac{4}{5}

2x+3y4z3xz\dfrac{2x + 3y - 4z}{3x - z} = 95=145\dfrac{9}{5} = 1\dfrac{4}{5}
