You asked:

Calculate the value of 2x+3y2\frac{2 x + 3}{y - 2} when x=12x = \frac{1}{2} and y=4y = 4.

MathBot Answer:

2x+3y2=2\frac{2 x + 3}{y - 2} = 2


2x+3y2=3+2242=3+21242=3+2122=3+12=2\begin{aligned}\frac{2 x + 3}{y - 2}&=\frac{3 + \frac{2}{2}}{4 - 2}\\&=\frac{3 + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}}{4 - 2}\\&=\frac{3 + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}}{2}\\&=\frac{3 + 1}{2}\\&=2\end{aligned}
