Answer:

Order of operations

Step-by-step explanation:

4 must be squared before multiplying by 5 because of order of operations (PEMDAS). PEMDAS stands for parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. 4 squared is an example of an exponent and multiplying by 5 is an example of multiplication. Therefore 4 squared must come first.

When 4 is squared first, you will get an answer of 80.

When you multiply by 5 first, you will get an answer of 400.

Solve the equation. 3p – 1 = 5(p – 1) – 2(7 – 2p) 3 -9 -10 0
Sati [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

3p – 1 = 5(p – 1) – 2(7 – 2p) 3 -9 -10  First Distribute

3p-1= 5p-5-42+12p-9-10  Simplify all like factors

3p-1=17p-66 Add 66 on both sides

3p+65=17p Subtract 3p from both sides

65=15p Divide both sides by 15

p=4.3

if it is a 100

3p – 1 = 5(p – 1) – 2(7 – 2p) 3 -9 -100  First Distribute

3p-1= 5p-5-42+12p-9-100  Simplify all like factors

3p-1=17p-156 Add 156 on both sides

3p+155=17p Subtract 3p on both sides

155= 15p divide both sides by 15

10.3=p
