Answer:
Her uncle's age = 47 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Sophia = 12 years old
Her Uncle Reynald tells her that if she adds 5 to her age,
= 12 + 5
multiplies the sum by 3
= (12 + 5) × 3
and then subtracts 4 from the product
= {(12 + 5) × 3} - 4
she will find his age
{(12 + 5) × 3} - 4
= (17 × 3) - 4
= 51 - 4
= 47
Her uncle's age = 47 years
Sophia wrote:
12 + 5 × 3 − 4
Using PEMDAS
P - product
E - exponent
M - multiplication
D - division
A - addition
S - subtraction
Sophia's expression can be written as = 12+(5*3)-4
= (12 + 15) - 4
= 27 - 4
= 23
Sophia's expression is wrong
Answer: (4) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2y if x is 3 and y is 5
8x = 24
2y = 10
24 - 10 = 14
So 8x - 2y is 14.
So the question here is just simply what percentage is 10 out of 50 correct? You would basically just do 10/50 times 100 which will give you 20 percent as your answer.
Answer:
x= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1st step: Multiply the factor (outside number) with the numbers and variable(s) in the box. This results in 2(x-3) = 2x-6
2nd Step: continue the rest of the equation since there are no more brackets left so 2x-6-12=-4
3rd Step: send -12 to the other side of the equation (side changes sign changes) so it will become 2x-6=-4+12 (You are actually supposed to make the variable alone on one side of the equation so that you would be able to calculate its value)
4th step: 2x-6=8 ---> send -6 to the other side as well which will then result in 2x=14
5th step: since 2 is being multiplied by x, when you send it to the other side (to make x alone) you will divide 14 by 2 ( sign of 2 changes from multiplication to division)
Final Step: x=7
