What is the value of 1-18+25 if you subtract then add? If you add then subtract? Why is the order of operations necessary?

1 answer:

7 0

In this problem it just goes left to right, 1-18+25 = -17+25 = 8
(1-18)+25-17+25=8<span>
</span>When you do addition and subtraction they are reversible so you just go left to right

1. The sides of a triangle have lengths of 5, 8, and 6.(1/ 2). An angle bisector meets the side of length 6.(1/ 2). Find the len

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i assume x+y=6(1/2)=\frac{13}{2}

$\frac{5}{8}=\frac{x}{y}=\frac{x}{\frac{13}{2}-x}=\frac{2x}{13-2x}\\65-10x=16x \\26 x=65\\2x=5\\x=\frac{5}{2}\\y=\frac{13}{2}-\frac{5}{2}=\frac{8}{2}=4$

Find angle B and angle E

Natali [406]

Answer:

x = 9, Angles are 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find x:

7x-9 = 5x+9

+9 +9

7x = 5x+18

-5x -5x

2x = 18

x = 9

Now, we plug our x value in to find our angles.

5(9) + 9 = 54

Angle B = 54°

7(9) - 9 = 54°

Angle E = 54°

(angles are the same due to AAA property)
