Answer :
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=x-3 \\ b=3x \\ x=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Substitute in the given expression (4ab) the variables (a and b) by its given values:
[tex]4ab=4(x-3)(3x)[/tex]Substitute in the expresion above the x by 2 and evaluate:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4(2-3)(3*2) \\ =4(-1)(6) \\ =-24 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the value of 4ab is -24
