So first we need to know the order of operations
P - Parenthesis
E - Exponents
M - Multiplication
D - Division
A - Addition
S - Subtraction
Then the special cases:
(I have attached a picture below)
Lets get into action!
(5a - 2)(5a + 2) - 3( 1 - a ) - 3a
25a² - 4 - 3 + 3a - 3a
25a² - 7
25a² - 7 is the answer
With the new ratio
3 maple trees for every 11 oak trees
132 oak trees (11*12=132)
3*12 =<span> 36 maple trees
</span><span>36 maple trees plus 132 oak trees = 168 total trees
</span>since your original ratio was 9:5 that means 9/14 of the trees were maple; so set up a proportion to find the number of trees that were maple before the bugs

cross multiply
14x = 1512
x= 108 maple trees before there were bugs
Finally do 108 - 36 (maple trees before, minus, maple trees after)
difference =
78 maple trees
About 3 times not exactly but about 3 because 90 devided by 300 is 3.3333
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 4 5 9
1 (11)(14)(15)(19)
4(41)(44)(45)(49)
5(51)(54)(55)(59)
9(91)(94)(95)(99)
