Answer: A. Distribute the 3 outside of the parathesis to everything inside the parenthesis

We use the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS.

Since there is a variable inside the parenthesis, we cannot add/subtract 4. This means the next step is to distribute.

After distributing, the equation looks like this and we can solve it from there:

4x + 12 = 30

You would use order of operations: PEMDAS
P(parenthesis) E(exponents) MD(multiplication/division) AS(addition/subtraction)
with MD and AS order doesnt matter.
8(5-32) you would start with inside the Parenthesis for "P" so (5-32)=(-27)
next you would go to the E but because you dont have an exponent you go to the next step with is the "MD" you have multiplication so next would be 8(-27) and 8 multiplied by -27 is: 8(-27)= -216
ANSWER: -216

Which is one way to check 102÷6 = 17? A) 105÷10 = 10 .5 B) 17÷6 = 102 C) 100÷5 = 20 D) 100×5 = 500

Was there a typo in the possible answers by any chance? B is closest to the possible answer, but only if the division sign was a multiplication sign.
102 ÷ 6 = 17
102 ÷ 17 = 6
17 x 6 = 102
6 x 17 = 102
