Use the phrase pemdas
it shows the order you solve. parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and then subtraction. ask me if you need any other help!
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
3-(7-2x) > -8
get rid of the parentheses because there is a minus sign before them
3-7+2x > -8
replace x with all the numbers (one by one not all at once) and see if the equation is correct until you find the number that makes it incorrect.
<u>EXAMPLE:</u>
3-7+2(1) > -8 parentheses next to a number means multiply
3-7+2 > -8
3-7 = -4
-4 + 2 = -2
-2 is greater than -8
Answer: 15
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
small: 5 12 13
middle: __ 36 39
large: 45 108 117
Notice that to get from the small to the large, multiplied by 9
5(9) = 45 12(9) = 108 13(9) = 117
That is because the sides are proportional 
To get from small to middle, multiply by 3
5(3) = 15 12(3) = 36 13(3) = 39
To solve it using proportions:
Answer:
<u>3 5 = 16</u>
<u> 3 = 3 16</u>
<u> 6 = 16</u>
<u> 6 = -4</u>
<u> x = -4/6</u>
each line has the number of boxes to be filled
To perform the following operation, make sure to do the division parts separately and place them back together in the final answer.
10/2 and x^5/x^2
5 and using the exponential laws of division X ^m/X^n = X ^ m-n
The second part evaluates to X^3.
Putting the terms together we get the final answer, which is 5x^3.
