Answer:
1. A
2. B
3. D
Step-by-step explanation:
Use PEMDAS to solve all
1.
8^2 - 6*2
8*8 - 6*2
64 - 12 = 52
2.
4^2 * 3 + 4 * 2
4 * 4 * 3 + 4 * 2
16 * 3 + 8
48 + 8 = 56
3.
9^2 - 2(5+3)
9 * 9 - 2(8)
81 - 16 =65
Answer: 
<u>Simplify both sides of the equation</u>

<u>Subtract 5n from both sides</u>

<u>Subtract 15 from both sides</u>

19 x 3 = 57
57 - 9 = 48
Your answer is 19.
The closest to the maximum number of cups the punch bowl can hold is 30
<h3>How to determine the number of cups?</h3>
The given parameters are:
1 cup = 15 cubic inches
Diameter of bowl, d = 12 inches
The radius is the half of the diameter.
So, we have:
r = 6
The volume of the bowl is then calculated using:

This gives

Evaluate
V = 452.16
The maximum number of cups is then calculated using:
Cups = 452.16/15
Evaluate
Cups = 30.1444
Approximate
Cups = 30
Hence, the closest to the maximum number of cups the punch bowl can hold is 30
