Answer:
a. 17 b. 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow Order of Operations (PEMDAS):
Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction
a. 9 + 4² - (4-2) • 4
9 + 4² - (4-2) • 4 –––Start with (4-2) = 2 (parentheses)
9 + 4² - 2 • 4 ––– 4² (exponents)
9 + 16 - 2 • 4 ––– 2 • 4 (multiplication)
9 + 16 - 8 ––– 9 + 16 (addition)
25 - 8 ––– 25 - 8 (subtraction)
17
b. 15 - 4 + 2(7-3) • 5
15 - 4 + 2(7-3) • 5 ––– Start with 2(7-3)
~ Note: this can be done using distributive property (2•7 - 2•3) OR solving the parentheses first and then multiplying 2(4). Both get 8 and same end result.
15 - 4 + 8 • 5 ––– 8 • 5 (multiplication)
15 - 4 + 40 ––– 15 - 4 (subtraction) *Note: Subtraction and addition are interchangeable in the order because you do it left to right*
11 + 40 ––– 11 + 40 (addition)
51
The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k. (i looked up this explanation but not sure if it’s right.. if it’s wrong let me know:) )
The answer is six dollars, because we cancel out the discount.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all the angles are the same value, we can equal them to each other: x+2 = 8, which will give us x = 6.
$3.70d + $5 = $42
So $3.70 per d (d in miles) plus $5 flat rate = $42
In case you need it solved also. Distance is 10 miles.
