Answer:

The order in which you evaluated the expression was a bit incorrect but the outcome either way was 78. In some cases if you evaluate the expression incorrectly or not in order will result in you getting the wrong answer. If you want to see how to evaluate it correctly just look below.

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS stands for

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication and Division ( left to right )

Addition and Subtraction ( left to right )

And it basically tells us the order in which you are suppose to evaluate a mathematical expression.

It appears the expression you are given is 4² + ( 1 × 5 + 7² ) + 8

First we would do the operation inside of the parenthesis

so we have ( 1 × 5 + 7² )

Exponents come before multiplying and addition so first evaluate the exponent, 7² = 49

we now have ( 1 × 5 + 49 )

we next do the multiplication

( 5 + 49 )

Finally we do the addition

5 + 49 = 54.

We then replace the expression ( 1 × 5 + 7² )  with 54 as we just evaluated everything in the parenthesis

we get 4² + 54 + 8

So we just did the parenthesis and next is exponents so lets evaluate the exponents, 4² = 16

16 + 54 + 8

Next in PEMDAS is multiplication and division. There is none so we go to the next step.

We now do the addition and subtraction. ( going left to right )

16 + 54 + 8

first add 16 and 54

70 + 8

finally add 70 and 8

= 78

Notes:

For parenthesis you evaluate everything inside of the parenthesis before you remove the parenthesis

For multiplcation and division, you must evaluate in order going left to right, not doing so can result in a wrong answer.

City R has a temperature of -2 degrees. City S has a temperature of -6 degrees. Write an inequality to compare the temperatures
elena-s [515]

Answer:

  -2 > -6  . . .   or  . . .  R > S

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot the temperatures of the two cities on a number line, you see that the temperature for City R is plotted to the right of the temperature for City S. This means the temperature of City S is less than that of City R.

If your inequality relates cities:

  S < R   or   R > S

If your inequality relates temperatures:

  -6 < -2   or   -2 > -6

ANHL player's labor negotiating committee is to be selected from 8 player representatives from the Eastern Conference and 7 play
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

21 / 143

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of Eastern conference reps = 8

Number of western conference rep = 7

Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes:

selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5

Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15

Total possible outcomes

Using combination formula :

nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!

15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003

Total possible outcomes = 3003

Required outcome :

8C3 * 7C2

8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21

8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176

required outcome / Total possible outcomes

= 1176 / 3003

= 21 / 143
