You have to use the order of operations when evaluating algebraic expressions. The m<span>nemonic device is PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. So the first thing is to solve what's in the parentheses.</span>

Answer:

When evaluating an algebraic expression the first thing you do is that you observe what would be the first operation applied on the expression.

In order to determine that you need to know the basic concept of PEMDAS

Where as  

P stands for Parentheses (brackets)

E stands for exponents

M stands for multiplication

D stands for division

A stands for addition  

S stands for subtraction

This is the order that needs to be kept in mind while solving the expression

5(wx-v)=9(x+v)<br> make x the subject
Zepler [3.9K]
Expand the brackets first
5(wx-v) = 9(x + v) 
5wx - 5v = 9x + 9v

Get all x's on one side and everything on on the other side
9x - 5wx = 9v + 5v

factorise out the x
x(9-5w) = 14v

then divide by 9-5w
x = 14v/(9-5w)

An unfair coin with​ Pr[H] = 0.2 is flipped. If the flip results in a​ head, a marble is selected at random from a urn containin
satela [25.4K]
Normally when dealing with coins the probability of getting heads or tails is 0.5 each. However in this case since its an unfair coin, the probability of getting heads is 0.2. 
H - head 
T - tails
R - red marble
pr (H) = 0.2
urn
6 red and 4 blue
pr (T)   = 0.8
urn
3 red and 5 blue

when heads is obtained 
red - 6/10 -0.6
blue - 4/10 - 0.4
therefore when multiplying with 0.2 probability of getting heads
pr (R ∩ H) red - 0.6*0.2 = 0.12

when tails is obtained 
red - 3/8 - 0.375
blue - 5/8 - 0.625
when multiplying with 0.8 probability of getting tails
pr (R ∩ T) red - 0.375 * 0.8 = 0.3

using bayes rule the answer can be found out, 
the following equation is used;
pr (H | R) = pr (R ∩ H) / {pr (R ∩ H) + pr (R ∩ T)}
               = 0.12 / (0.12 + 0.3)
               = 0.12 / 0.42
               = 0.286
the final answer is 0.286
