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

lys-0071 [83]

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)

A candy store held a contest to guess the total number of jelly beans in a jar. All of the jelly beans in the jar were either gr

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of orange jelly beans be x , as we do not know the exact value of it yet. There are 12 times as many green jelly beans than the orange ones. So , if the number of orange jelly beans is x , the number of green jelly beans will be = 12 times x , which can be written as 12x. Now there are a total of 1872 jelly beans , but they are either orange or green , so we already know that the number of orange jbs is x , and the number of green jelly beans is 12x. So if we the green jelly beans and orange jelly beans , it should be 1872.

Now all we need to do is to find x.

We know that ,

x + 12x = 1872

Now we add x and 12x on the left hand side

13x = 1872

Now we divide both sides by 13 to get x. (That includes 1872 as well)

x = 144

Now we have the value of x which is 144

We know that the number of green jelly beans was 12 times x

So the number of green jelly beans in numeric value is : 12 * 144

As x is equal to 144

Ans . : The number of green jelly beans is 1728.

15 points: can someone help me with this thank you. (all separate equations)

OLga [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x+3y=12\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\6x-6x+3y=12-6x\\\\3y=12-6x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\dfrac{3y}{3}=\dfrac{12}{3}-\dfrac{6y}{3}\\\\\large\boxed{y=4-2y}\\\\===================$

$2p-k=3\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2p\ \text{from both sides}\\\\2p-2p-k=3-2p\\\\-k=3-2p\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\k=-3+2p\\\\\large\boxed{k=2p-3}\\\\===================$

$6v-2w=10\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6v\ \text{from both sides}\\\\6v-6v-2w=10\\\\-2w=10-6v\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\\dfrac{-2w}{-2}=\dfrac{10}{-2}-\dfrac{6v}{-2}\\\\w=-5+3v\\\\\large\boxed{w=3v-5}\\\\===================$
