Answer 3

2k -3

2k

if Marla made "k" free throws, that means
twice as much will be "2k"
less 3 from that will be

2k - 3

so Tamara made twice as much, less 3 of that
or
3 less than twice as much as Marla

Answer 10

grouped elements are done first, from innermost, to outer

Answer 11

then multiplicaton and division from left to right

Answer 12

can you tell me the answer

Answer 13

is it 2.33333333333?

Answer 14

or 16.33333333333

Answer 15

?

Answer 16

\(\Large \bf \color{red}{6 \cdot [\color{blue}{7 + (\color{green}{15 - 8})}] \div 3}\)

you'd do the "green" part first
the "blue" 2nd
the "red" or outermost last

Answer 17

ok thank you so much

Answer 18

15-8 = 7

[ 7 + (7)] = 14

\(\bf 6 \times 14 = 84\\
84 \div 3 = 28\)
