1. Problem 22 asks for a description of the algebraic expression $\frac{e}{d} - 15$.
2. This expression means you divide $e$ by $d$, then subtract 15 from the result.
3. Problem 23 asks for a description of the algebraic expression $2(d - 5)$.
4. This expression means you subtract 5 from $d$, then multiply the result by 2.
5. Problem 24 asks to evaluate $\frac{ab}{2}$ when $a=4$ and $b=5$.
6. Substitute values: $\frac{4 \times 5}{2}$.
7. Multiply numerator: $\frac{20}{2}$.
8. Simplify fraction: $\frac{\cancel{20}}{\cancel{2}} = 10$.
9. Problem 25 asks to evaluate $\frac{a^2}{5}$ when $a=4$.
10. Substitute value: $\frac{4^2}{5}$.
11. Calculate power: $\frac{16}{5}$.
12. This fraction cannot be simplified further, so the answer is $\frac{16}{5}$ or 3.2.
Final answers:
- Problem 24: 10
- Problem 25: $\frac{16}{5}$ or 3.2
