To solve this problem, we should understand how order of operations works. Perhaps the best way to show you this would be solving the problem with all of the work clearly labeled?
=4[2(21-17)+3] Original Problem
=4[2(4)+3] Solved the Parentheses
=4[8+3] Multiplied the 2 and 4
=4[11] Added the 8 and 3
=44 Multiplied the 4 and 11
An easy way to remember this is PEMDAS, which is an acronym for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. Although it will not apply in this scenario (because we have brackets), it will come in handy for many others like this.
Using all of the information above, we can conclude that this expression equals 4.
The correct awnser should be 8.4.
Answer:
7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the points (2,−3) and (−5,−3) is 7 units.
X = the number of humans and y = the number of horses.
x+y=74
2x+4y=196
Because the number of humans and horses together is 74, and the total number of legs (2 per every human, x, and 4 per every horse, y) is 196. Then, just use elimination to solve.
So, now that you have y, you can plug it into the first equation to find x:
So, x = 50 and y = 24, so there are 50 humans and 24 horses.
The correct answer is B.
