Explain how to solve 8(to the 2nd power)+ 9(12 ÷ 3 • 2) – 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first do the (12/3 x2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[8^2+\frac{9(12)}{3* 2}-7\] or \[8^2+\frac{9(12 *3)}{ 2}-7\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That doesn't really make sense what does the problem inside of the parenthesis equal I can figure out the rest.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's 8 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What did you get overall?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

577 but I think I did something wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I didn't get that. After you found what's inside you should have: \[8^{2}+9(8)-7\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

PEMDAS... you are on E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So wouldn't it be 64 + 9 x 8 - 7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes... now M

OpenStudy (anonymous):

64 x 8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9 into 8 first?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9 x 8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9x8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

72

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes 64+72-7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now A and S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

129?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Awesome :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):
