How can the order of operations be used to simplify expressions?

Order of Operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction), can help to simplify an equation by guiding you through the steps to solve it.

This is because it tells you to solve the parentheses. If there is none, but you've already done this, you solve for exponents, etc. 

The progressive soling of the equation not only makes it physically shorter, but also brings you closer to the answer.

Hope this helps, and I was the brainliest! :)

Which form of a quadratic function is easiest to use when finding the maximum or minimum value of the function?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

ax² + bx + c

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of a quadratic equation that is easy to use when finding the maximum or minimum value of the function is ax² + bx + c.

Suppose a quadratic function:

f(x) = 2x² - 8x + 9

Use ( -b/2a ,  f(-b/2a) ).

-b/2a

a = 2

b = -8

-(-8)/2(2)

8/4

= 2

f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 9

f(2) = 2(4) - 8(2) + 9

f(2) = 8 - 16 + 9

f(2) = 1

The minimum value of this quadratic function is (2, 1).

It represents a minimum value because a > 0.
