Question

1 over 4 6 and 1 over 2 23 and 1 over 4 23 and 1 over 2What is the value of the expression shown below? (4 points) 3 over 6 to the power of 2 + 7 × 4 − 5 Group of answer choices 6 and 1 over 4 6 and 1 over 2 23 and 1 over 4 23 and 1 over 2! PLSSSSS HELPPPPPPP

Answer 1

Answer:  23¹/₄

23 and 1 over 4

Explanation: Use PEMDAS OR BODMAS to calculate

(3/6)² + 7 × 4 -5  Parentheses first. 3/6 is 1/2 Then Exponents

(1/2)² is ¹/₄

Then calculate Multiplication and Division

7 × 4= 28

Now we have

¹/₄ + 28 - 5   Do the Addition and Subtraction, left to right.

28 ¹/₄ - 5

23 ¹/₄

It looks as if the same question is posted twice here, and a bit confusing to sort out. I am assuming the parentheses around the fraction, and that the "power of 2" is the exponent. If the "2 + 7 × 4 -5" is all in parentheses as an exponent to calculate, that would result in a different answer.

I hope this helps.
