Evualuate For a = 1 1/2
\(\begin{align*} (5a^2 - 13a + 4)(2a - 3) \end{align*}\)
When a = 1 1/2 = 3/2,
\(2a = 3\\ 2a - 3 = 0\)
\((5a^2-13a+4)(2a - 3) = (5a^2-13a+4)(0) = 0\)
To evaluate this expression, let's first start with 2a-3. We know a = 3/2. Thus, 2a - 3 is 3 - 3 which is 0. We know anything times 0 is 0 so...
...the answer is 0!!
