Remember PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Divison, Addition and Subtraction)

Also note that Multiplication and Division needs to be done left to right and the same goes for Addition and Subtraction.

So in your problem, the first operation we need to do is division.

68 - (18/3) x 6
68 - 6 x 6

Now we do multiplication
68 - 6 x 6
68 - 36

Finally we do subtraction because that's the only operation we have left to do
68 - 36 = 32

So your answer should be 32.

Three vertices of a square have coordinates (5, 1), (2, -2), and (-1, 1). What are the coordinates of the fourth vertex?

Tresset [83]

Plot the points
we notice that the square is tilted diagnaol

remember that the legnths of the diagonals of a square are equal

therefor the distance between the points (5,1) and (-1,1) is the same as the ohter diagonal (distance is 6)

the other point is probably that disance up or the y vairable
(2,-2)+6 on the y
-2+6=4
(2,4)
answer is (2,4)
