To evaluate algebraic expressions there is no order. You just need to follow something called pemdas. The way to remember this is
 
p = please
e = excuse
m = my
d = dear
a= aunt
s = sally
 
So just remember Please excuse my dear aunt sally or pemdas.
   
P = parentheses (Apply from left tor right)
E = exponent (Apply from left tor right)
M = multiplication (Apply from left tor right)
D = division (Apply from left tor right)
A = addition (Apply from left tor right)
S = subtraction (Apply from left tor right)
 
Then solve!
 
Hope this helps!! xD

In solving algebraic expressions, there is an order in which to solve it.

1) perform the operation inside the parenthesis first  
2) then perform the operation with the exponents
3) apply multiplication and division from left to right of the equation.
4) apply addition and subtraction from left to right of the equation.

Remember this: PEMDAS for easier recall. (parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)

Law Incorporation [45]
Let K=average weight of an okapi and L=that of a llama.
3L=K+190 and K+L=450 so K=450-L. Therefore 3L=450-L+190, 4L=640, L=160kg and K=450-160=290kg.
Okapi weighs 290kg, llama weighs 160kg.

7th term in geometric sequence an=2 5(n-1)
Soloha48 [4]
To find the 7th term, all you have to do is plug it in the equation.

First n would equal 7 because we are looking for the 7th term.

Now, let's plug everything we know into the equation.

a7 = 2+5 * (7-1)

= 2 + 5 * 6

= 2 + 30

= 32

In conclusion, the 7th term would equal 32.
