The man casts a shadow that is 2/3 the length of his height. Because we know that the man and the flagpole are standing at the same time of the day, we can conclude that the shadow of the flagpole is 2/3 the length of the flagpole as well. Then, you would multiple 10(3/2) to get 15 as the height of the flagpole.

Maggie says that if the expression was 12÷3to the second power, you would divide before simplifying 3 to the second power. Is sh

mezya [45]

Answer:

Maggie is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS tells us the order of operations and the steps of solving a mathematical statement. It states that exponents must be performed before multiplication or division.

P - Parentheses

E - Exponents

M - Multiplication

D - Division

A - Addition

S - Subtraction

Therefore, to solve 12÷3² correctly, 3² needs to be simplified to 9 before dividing.

I hope this helps!
