Basically, we need to plug in the given values for the variables [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] into the given expression [tex]1.3(x+2)-(y-6)[/tex]. First off, we can plug in all the given values into the expression, giving us [tex]1.3(4+2)-(2-6)[/tex]. Now, perform the operations on the inside of the parentheses. Doing this, we get [tex]1.3(6)-(-4)[/tex]. Now, we use the distributive property to simplify. This gives us [tex]7.8+4[/tex]. Finally, when we add the two numbers, we get [tex]\boxed{11.8}[/tex]. Hope this helped!
