This is because of the order of operations:
Parentheses
Exponent
Divide
Multiply
Add
Subtract

Note that parentheses are the first, so it will affect everything after it.

Examples:
2(5+4)= 2x9= 18
(2x5)+4= 10+4= 14

5/(2+3)= 5/5= 1
(5/2)+3= 2.5+3= 5.5

(4 + 2) / 36 = 1/6
4 + 2/36 = 4 + 1/18 = 72/18 + 1/18 = 73/18

(5 - 3) / 4 = 1/4
5 - 3/4 = 20/4 - 3/4 = 17/4

If a heptagon has an area of 105 in2, what is the measure of one side ?

kumpel [21]

Answer:

5.38 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Area of an Heptagon

= A=7/4a²cot(180°/7)

Area = 105in²

Side a = ?

The formula for Side a

= √4A ×tan (180°/7)/7

= √4 × 105 × tan (180°/7) /7

= 5.37536 inches

Approximately = 5.38 inches.

1 The metal used to make a coin is a mixture of steel and copper. The ratio mass of steel

Masteriza [31]

$\huge{ \underline{ \underline{ \gray{ \bf{Solution:}}}}}$

Let,

Mass of the steel be 108x
Mass of the copper be 7x
Then, Total mass = 108x + 7x = 115x

Given,

Total mass of the coin = 230 mg

That means,

⇛ Total mass of the coin = 230 mg

⇛ 115x = 230 mg

⇛ x = 230 mg/115

⇛ x = 2 mg

Then,

Mass of the steel = 108(2) = 216 mg
Mass of the copper = 7(2) = 14 mg

☁️ ANSWER - 14 mg (Mass of copper)

I don't get the problem

Ulleksa [173]

A(b + c) = a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c

You must multiply individual terms and see what it would equal
