"Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally<span>". It stands for "Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction".
</span><span> we follow PEDMAS simply because that's the accepted convention, but we have the convention because it fits common cases well and makes mathematical expressions easier to read.

I don't know exactly what answer you're looking for but that's what I got. This shouldn't have been hard to pick up on in class lol.

What is PEMDAS you ask right?well PEMDAS is a thing you use to solve equations with either parentesis,exponets,when adding,subtracting,multiplying,and dividing.for example, (4+9)20÷5.the first thing that you'll do is what is in the parentesis.4+9=13.then,20÷5=4.finally since there isnt a sign on what to do with 13 &4 you just multiply.4×13=52.we use PEMDAS so it can add order when solving a problem like the example.

PLEASE HELP 60 POINTS!!!!!!Sal’s Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials.
Zanzabum

2x + 3y = 1,470

To solve using the slope intercept method, we need to solve for y.

First, subtract 2x from each side.

3y = -2x +1470

The, we need to divide both sides of the equation by by 3 to solve for y

y = -2/3 x + 490.


We know the y intercept is 470, which means on the y axis we place at point at positive 490.  The slope is -2/3.  We go down 2 units and over to the right 3 units and place a point.  We draw a line connecting these two points extending only to the right until it reaches the x axis. We cannot have negative x because we cannot sell negative lunch specials.  We cannot have negative y, because y is the number of specials sold.
