Can someone just please explain why in PEMDAS for example: 6 + 9 ÷ 3 × 7. Why do you do the division (9/3) before the multiplica

tion (3x7) even though the order is “M”, “D” in the acronym?

Because is division is before multiplication you have to do division even though the m is before d.

A high school band asked a number of students whether they would like blue, gold, or both for the uniforms for the band. The res
Anna35 [415]
Given a Venn diagram showing the number of students that like blue uniform only as 32, the number of students that like gold uniform only as 25, the number of students that like blue and gold uniforms as 12 and the number of students that like neither blue nor gold uniform as 6.

Thus, the total number of students interviewed is 75.

Recall that relative frequency of an event is the outcome of the event divided by the total possible outcome of the experiment.

From the relative frequency table, a represent the relative frequency of the students that like gold but not blue.
From the Venn, diagram, the number of students that like gold uniform only as 25, thus the relative frequency of the students that like gold but not blue is given by
\frac{25}{75} = \frac{1}{3}=0.33=33\%

Therefore, a = 33% to the nearest percent.

Similarly, from the relative frequency table, b represent the relative frequency of the students that like blue but not gold.
From the Venn, diagram, the number of students that like blue uniform only as 32, thus the relative frequency of the students that like gold but not blue is given by
\frac{32}{75} = 0.427=42.7\%

Therefore, b = 43% to the nearest percent.

1.) A 20° sector in a circle has an area of 21.5π yd².
a_sh-v [17]

<u>Part 1)</u> A 20° sector in a circle has an area of 21.5π yd².

What is the area of the circle?  

we know that

the area of a circle represent a sector of 360 degrees

so by proportion

\frac{21.5\pi }{20} =\frac{x}{360} \\ \\ x*20=360*21.5\pi \\ \\x=(360*21.5*3.14)/20\\ \\x= 1,215.18\ yd^{2}    

therefore

<u>the answer part 1) is</u>

The area of the circle is 1,215.18\ yd^{2}

<u>Part 2)</u> What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 3π/5 radians and a diameter of 21.2 cm?

we know that

the area of the circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

where

r is the radius of the circle

in this problem we have

Diameter=21.2\ cm\\ r=Diameter/2\\r=21.2/2\\r= 10.6\ cm

<u>Find the area of the circle</u>

A=\pi r^{2}

A=\pi*10.6^{2}

A=352.8104\ cm^{2}

<u>Find the area of the sector</u>

we know that the area of the circle represent a sector of 2\pi radians

by proportion

\frac{352.8104}{2\pi }=\frac{x}{(3\pi/5)} \\\\x*2\pi=(3\pi*352.8104)/5\\ \\x= 105.84\ cm^{2}

therefore

<u>the answer part 2) is</u>

the area of the sector is

105.84\ cm^{2}

Hannah is asked to convert the number 0.00000305 to scientific notation. Her answer is 3.05 × 106. Which statement best describe
Sophie [7]

Answer: if u mean 3.05 x 10^6 then Hannah is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

With scientific notations you should have one number on the left side of the decimal so 3.05 is correct and since you move the decimal to the right six times you would get 3.05 * 10^6
