Answer:
5. The answer is 2
6. Her error is that she was supposed to subtract 16 minus 12 instead of 12 minus 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
For number 5 all I did was solve.
12 + (25 - 5^2) - 2 =
12 + 0 - 2 =
12 - 2 = 10
10 ÷ 5 = 2
So, for number 5 the answer is 2.
For number 6, you should know that when there are only plus and minus signs you solve from left to right.
She instead put parentheses where there shouldn't of been, and because of that she is wrong.
Hope this helps! :)
Two hundred and ninety subtract three X equals 75
4 + 4 + 4 - 1 = 11? Was it supposed to be an equation? I am confused.
25q + 10d = 425
q + d = 20
First thing's first, picture 4 quarters. Do you know how much these 4 quarters are worth? Obviously, you'd answer one dollar, but take the time to think about how exactly you came up with this answer.
"Well, it's simple," you might think, "Multiply 0.25 by 4."
Similar to this train of thought, the first equation is formulated by doing exactly that. 'q' represents an unknown number of quarters, and 'd' an unknown number of dimes. We use 25q and 10d, because, well, we're multiplying their value by the number of coins. They're equivalent to 425 because the 20 unknown coins make $4.25 (I converted it to cents to get rid of the pesky decimals, but if you want to keep it as dollars that works too).
Because the equation states that there are 20 coins in total, we know that we can make the equation 'q + d = 20' since there are 20 quarters and dimes in total.
Let me know if you need any further explanation :)
