We are asked to write a certain equation. Your first task is to read the statement thoroughly. If you've notice, the statement mentioned "a number". Let's assign x to be the number. First statment is twice a number (2x). Then, decreased by the quotient of that number and 2 (-x/2). Lastly, the statement at least 12 is written as >12. 

2x - (x/2) >12

Give two examples that show how using parentheses can change the order I. Witch operations are performed in an expression
pantera1 [17]
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.

Yupin is making fruit punch. The recipe calls for 2 ½ of guava juice. The guava juice container has 4 ¼ cups of juice in it. How
astraxan [27]

Answer:

1 \frac{3}{4} cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the numbers to decimals, then subtract the amount needed from the amount in the juice container:

4.25 - 2.5

= 1.75

This is equivalent to the fraction 1\frac{3}{4}

So, after Yupin makes the punch, there will be 1\frac{3}{4} cups of guava juice left in the container
