18 – 3(4-6) *2

Parenthesis first:

18 - 3(-2) *2

Multiplication from left to right:

18 +6*2 = 18 +12

Addition:

18 + 12 = 30

Hi there! :)

Answer:

$\boxed{30}$

Step-by-step explanation:

HINT: PEMDAS

Parenthesis

Exponent

Multiply

Divide

Add

Subtract

LEFT/RIGHT

First, you do parenthesis.

$(4-6)=-2$

$18-3(-2)*2$

Then, you multiply from left/right.

$3(-2)*2=-12$

$18-(-12)$

Add by the numbers from left/right.

$18+12=30$

$\boxed{30}$ , is the FINAL/CORRECT ANSWER!

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a nice day! :)

The table below shows the data for a random sample of fish that were collected from and later released into a lake: type of fish

Gwar [14]

You were given the data as statistics so that you can predict the number of a certain type of fish through ratio and proportion. The main focus here is then number of bluegill fish. From the given statistics, the number is 87. The total number of fishes at that time was 52+61+87 = 200. So, assuming that this composition is uniform in the said lake. We can then use the ratio from the given statistics to know the proportion of bluegills to the total fishes. Hence, we equate the two ratios:

87/200 = x/800

where x is the number of bluegills among the 800 total fishes that is in proportion to the gathered statistics. Solving for x, we determine the answer to be

x = 348

X= and y=1/

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: Answer below.

Step-by-step explanation: If x is pi, and y is 1/pi, then multiplying x by y is 1; yes. So, for y, 1 is being divided by pi. The opposite of division is multiplication. If you multiply 1/pi by pi, the pi in the denominator cancels. Just how if it is 5x = 10, dividing by 5 cancels it on the left side, and gets you x = 2.

This is general for everything. If you multiply 2 by 1/2, you get 1. This is because dividing is also like multiplying by its reciprocal. 1/2's reciprocal is 2/1, and multiplying leaves you with 1. Go and use a calculator, it's correct. Actually, any problem a/b × b/a = 1.

Iris charges a fee for her consulting services plus an hourly rate that is 11 times her fee. On a 7-hour job, Iris charged $470.

NemiM [27]

To answer this question, we let x be the the consulting fee of Iris. With this representation, the value for the hourly rate is equal to 11x. The equation that would allow us to relate the consulting services fee, hourly fee and total value given that she worked for 7 hours would then be equal to,
x + (7)(11x) = 470
Simplifying the left-hand side of the equation,
78x = 470
Dividing the equation by 78 will give us an answer of 6.

Hence,
 x = $6 (Consulting services fee)
 11x = 11($6) = $66 (hourly rate)
