<em><u /></em>
<em><u>The correct way of solving it</u></em>
-16 -2(-2) - 12 Multiply into the parenthesis
-16 + 4 -12 Add the first two numbers
-12 - 12 Add the numbers together
-24 The answer
Answer:
To do this question, we must first convert Pi to a decimal form, as shown below:
Pi = 3.14
So then our equation becomes:
3.14 x 36 - 16
We still need to remember PEMDAS.
Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction.
So according to PEMDAS, we need to do 3.14 x 36, which equals 113.04
Now we have to do:
113.04 - 16 = 97.04
Our answer is 97.04

Answer:
Her opportunity cost of reading 10 pages of sociology is 15 pages of Economics
Her opportunity cost of reading 18 pages of economics is 12 pages of sociology.
Step-by-step explanation:
For economics, Latasha reads 1 page in 2 mins (gotten by dividing the number of pages by the time taken to read it i.e 30 pages in 1 hr or 60 mins)
Her sociology is read 1 page in 3 mins (20 pages read in 60 mins)
To read 10 pages of sociology will take 30 mins. She will read 15 pages of Economics in the same time which is the opportunity cost.
In the same vein, It will take her 36 mins to read 18 pages of Economics at the same rate. This is the opportunity cost of reading 12 pages of Sociology (which she reads at 1 page in 3 mins).
