Give two examples that show how using parentheses can change the order I. Witch operations are performed in an expression

The order of arithmetic operations is given by the acronym PEMDAS, which means
Parentheses,
Exponents,
Multiplication,
Division,
Addition,
Subtraction.

These two examples illustrate how the use of parentheses can change the order.

Example 1:
5+7/3x4-2/5 has an answer of 13.933.

Use PEMDAS to obtain
5+(7/3)x4-(2/5)
= 5+(2.3333x4)-0.4
= 5+9.3333-0.4
= 14.3333-0.4
= 13.933

If we apply the parentheses: (5+7)/3x4-2/5
The result is
(12/3)x4-(2/5)
= (4x4)-0.4
= 16-0.4
= 15.06
which is a different answer.

Example 2:
8/3²x5+4 has the answer 8.444

Use PEMDAS to obtain
8/(3²)x5+4
= (8/9)x5+4
= (0.8889x5)+4
= 4.4444+4
= 8.4444

If we apply the parentheses (8/3)²x5+4:
The result is
2.6667²x5+4
= 7.1113x5+4
= 35.5565+4
= 39.5565
which is a different answer.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Median is 6

standard deviation is 2.39

Step-by-step explanation:

the median is the mid number in the data set

The median formula is {(n + 1) ÷ 2}th, where “n” is the number of items in the set and “th” just means the (n)th number.

There are 51 data points in this set (n = 51)

so 51 / 2 = 25.5, the. number in the 25th slot is our median

3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6,<u> 6</u>, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11

the standard deviation is a measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. Low standard deviation means data are clustered around the mean, and high standard deviation indicates data are more spread out.

Please help me with a explanation
blagie [28]

Answer:

x = -3   or   x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 9 from both sides.

x^2 - 9 = 0

Factor the left side. There is no common factor of the terms. It is a binomial which is the difference of two squares, so it factors into the product of a sum and a difference.

(x + 3)(x - 3) = 0

Set each factor equal to zero.

x + 3 = 0   or   x - 3 = 0

Solve each equation.

x = -3   or   x = 3
