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:
-64
Step-by-step explanation:
If
y=x^2
and the x represents -8
Your answer will be -64
By saying that x=(-8) all you have to do is plug in the negative 8 to the original equation of y=x^2. This would make it y=(-8)^2
When you plug in negative 8 to the second power into the calculator your answer will be -64
I hope this helps king!
Answer:
No, they are not equal
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = 1
4(5+x) = 4(5+1) = 4 x 6 = 24
(5+4) + x = 9 +1 = 10
24
10
The product of 379 and 8 is 3,032.
It's between (any number less than 3,032) and (any number greater than 3,032).
I guess if this is an <em>estimation </em>exercise, you could say that it's between
(8 x 300) and (8 x 400), or 2,400 and 3,200.
