How do you know the correct order in which to evaluate algebraic expressions?

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)

Answer:

The displacement is: - 80 i

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer the question, you have to apply the displacement formula, which is:

ΔX= Xf-Xi

Where ΔX is the displacement, Xf is the final position and Xi is the initial position. The formula represents the change in the position of an object from the origin.

Let the origin be in 0 km,with the x-axis positive to te right.

Notice that the displacement is a vector. The positions are:

Xf=163 km (i)

Xi= 243 km (i)

Because John starts in 243 km and finishes in 163 km.

Where i is the unit vector in the x direction.

Therefore:

ΔX= 163 i - 243 i

Solving:

ΔX= -80 i

Notice that for calculating the displacement you just need the initial and final position. It doesn't depend on the distance traveled.

Find the perimeter of a triangle with sides 15 inches, 15 inches, and 21 inches length.
Degger [83]

find the perimeter of a triangle with sides 15 inches, 15 inches, and 21 inches length

To find the perimeter of a triangle we add all the sides of the triangle

The length of the sides of the triangle are given as 15 inches, 15 inches, and 21 inches

Perimeter of a triangle =

15 inches + 15 inches +   21 inches = 51 inches

So 51 inches is the perimeter
