Let's solve the expression [tex]\(2b + 2\)[/tex] step-by-step.
1. Identify the value of the variable [tex]\(b\)[/tex]:
- In this context, we assume that [tex]\(b = 1\)[/tex].
2. Substitute the value of [tex]\(b\)[/tex] into the expression:
- Replace [tex]\(b\)[/tex] with [tex]\(1\)[/tex].
[tex]\[
2b + 2 \Rightarrow 2(1) + 2
\][/tex]
3. Perform the multiplication:
- Calculate [tex]\(2 \times 1\)[/tex].
[tex]\[
2 \times 1 = 2
\][/tex]
4. Add the constant term:
- Now, add the result of the multiplication to the constant term [tex]\(2\)[/tex].
[tex]\[
2 + 2 = 4
\][/tex]
So, the value of the expression [tex]\(2b + 2\)[/tex] when [tex]\(b = 1\)[/tex] is [tex]\(4\)[/tex].
