The perimeter of the park is (125+150)*2=550 yards. Then, to walk a million years, you would need to walk 1000000/550=1818.18 perimeters. Since we're looking for the amount of times we have to walk around the park fully to hit 1,000,000 yards, though, we must round up (even though normally with a decimal of .18 we'd round down) to 1819 times.
So in matt's equation, he made a mistake in the a transision from line 2 to line 3
in line 2: -4(-2)2
in line 3: -4(4)
the mistake is that -2 times 2 is not equal +4 it is equal to -4
also from lines 5 to 6 he made a mistake in order of opperations (mulit division then addition and subtract)
line 5: -10+30/5
line 6: 20/5
so he first subtracted 10 then divided, he should have divided then subtracted
so the equation should have equaled
Karen used the correct (-) times (+) property and the order of operations
so Karen is correct and Matt is wrong.
