No they do not. the order of operations (GERMDAS) says that you divide and multiply before adding or subtracting. This means that without the parentheses, the answer is 15.
with the parentheses, because you solve what is in the parentheses first, the answer is 9.

I believe so because if you were to work them out it would give you the same answer. the parentheses don't make the probably different since it doesn't have an exponent. so they are not needed

I am pretty sure it is 39 but I am not exactly sure. You might want someone else to solve this too. I did 27*.45=12.15 then I did 12.15+27=39.15 then I rounded the answer to the nearest whole number.

I hope this helped you:)

How do I do this example 8(10a-4)+5a and 5a-12 are equivalent? Is she correct?

vampirchik [111]

8(10a - 4) + 5a = 5a - 12
8(10a) - 8(4) + 5a = 5a - 12
80a - 32 + 5a = 5a - 12
80a + 5a - 32 = 5a - 12
85a - 32 = 5a - 12
-5a -5a 
80a - 32 = -12
 +32 +32
 80a = 20
 80 80
 a = 1/4
