Following PEMDAS is crucial to solving these. Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally
P - Parenthesis
E - Exponents
M - Multiplication
D - Division
A - Addition
S - Subtraction
Multiplication/Division and Addition/Subtraction are interchangeable.
Now then, number 1 has the following:

There are no parenthesis or exponents, but there is multiplication, so we will start with multiplying. There are two multiplication expressions in the problem.


Since you did that, your answer has been simplified to:

Now, all you have to do is combine your like terms. Since every term is alike, you can combine the whole expression.

So, your final answer would be:

Hopefully with this information, you can solve the rest. If you have any questions, let me know.

Answer:
The Tip amount is $ 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The total dinner bill = $ 61.31
Rounding the bill to nearest ten dollars
The value of bill after rounding it to ten dollars = $ 60
Now The percentage of tips = 15% of dinner bill
So, The amount given as tip = 15% × $ 60
Or, The amount given as tip = $ 9
Hence The Tip amount is $ 9 Answer
Ya he is correct !
for any value of P, both can never be equal !
as, 5(2p-6) = 10p-30 .....so even if we put any value , negative or positive, (-30) can not be changed anyway !
thus 30-10p can never be equal to 5(2p-6) !!
