Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the expression we have is:

To find an equivalent expression, it would be helpful to express 1/3 so that it has a 12 in the denominator:

so we substitute this:

and now we have 1/12 in both terms :

so we can factor it (we take it out of each term: in the first we are left with -x and in the second with -4):
the equivalent expression is:
Answer:
5 x 2 -3 = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
i mean.... thats all
Option 2.
1. Simplify 7 + (12 - 9) + 7 × 3(8 - 5)
According to the Order of Operations, contents of parentheses are evaluated first. This gives
... 7 + 3 + 7 × 3 × 3
Then multiplication and division are performed left to right.
... = 7 + 3 + 21 × 3
... = 7 + 3 + 63
Followed by addition and subtraction left to right.
... = 10 + 63
... = 73
A Google search box can be relied upon to do the operations in the correct order.
_____
2. When the expression is rewritten, a different result is obtained. This is because the operations indicated by the second set of parentheses are altered.
... (7 + 12) - 9 + (7 × 3)8 - 5
... = 19 - 9 + 21 × 8 - 5
... = 19 - 9 + 168 - 5
... = 10 + 168 - 5
... = 178 - 5
... = 173
In the first expression, both +8 and -5 are multiplied by 21. In the rewritten expression, only +8 is multiplied by 21.
