The order of operations helps keep answers for multi-step equations similar. If the proper order of operations are not followed, then answers may vary. To show an example:
4 / 2 - 1
The proper order of operations would be:
Divide first, before subtracting
4 / 2 - 1
2 - 1
1
But if subtracting was done before dividing:
4 / 2 - 1
4 / 1
4
So not following the proper order would yield different and erroneous answers.
Answer:
2/3 or 4/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2nd term is 8.
nth term is 3n + 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term = 5 + 3(n - 1)
= 3n + 2
Answer:
min{5 x^2 - 20 x + 3} = -17 at x = 2
Step-by-step explanation: here's the graph
x= -4 because 1.4 times -4=- 5.6 and 2.6 times -4=-10.4 and when we add to numbers postive or negative numbers it stays positive or negative depnding on the problem and 10.4 + 5.6 + 16 however becuase both were negative the answers stays negative making the answer _ 16 and it says 1.4x+2.6x=-16 so the correct answer is x= -4
