"5 times the number 25" is just 25 multiplied 5 times. Then "the quotient of 14 and 7" is just 14 divided by seven. You need the parenthesis because of the PEMDAS rule. Am expression is nt the same as an equation. An equation has an equals sign, an expression does not. So the final expression would be:
(5 x 25) - (14 / 7)
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2x-3)-(x+8)=13
10x-15-x-8=13
9x-23=13
9x=36
x=4
Answer: -14
Step-by-step explanation: Here we're asked to simplify -|-14| so we
start by simplifying the absolute value of -14.
Remember that the absolute value of
any positive or negative integer is positive.
So the absolute value of -14 is 14.
So we write (14) in parenthses like I have just done.
Next, we bring down the negative sign
that was outside the absolute value.
So we're left with -(14) or -14.

Answer:
$98.11
Step-by-step explanation:
If your calculator doesn't work with mixed numbers, you must first convert 6 5/8% to a decimal fraction.
6 5/8 = (6·8+5)/8 = 53/8 = 6.625
6 5/8% = 0.01×6.625 = 0.06625
Then the desired amount is ...
0.06625 × $1480.90 = $98.109625 ≈ $98.11
6 5/8% of $1,480.90 is $98.11.
