Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A - Where did Phillip make a mistake? Justify your answer using complete sentences.
Use order of operation (PEMDAS)
He should multiply 8 x 4 first
Part B - Solve the expression correctly in the space below.
(5 x 9) - 8 x 4
= 45 - 32
= 13
Part C - Use the same rules of order of operations to solve the expression (8-4) +9 x 3. Explain your steps as you solve it.
(8-4) + 9 x 3
Step 1: 4 + 9 x 3 (Subtract in the parenthesis first)
Step 2: 4 + 27 (Multiply 9 x 3)
Step 3: 31 (Add)
The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
(x - 3)(4x + 2) = (x)(4x + 2) + (-3)(4x + 2)
= (x)(4x) + (x)(2) + (-3)(4x) + (-3)(2) = 4x² + 2x - 12x - 6
<h3>= 4x² - 10x - 6</h3>
