Evaluate the expression 3(7 + 4)^2 − 14 ÷ 7. Can someone help plss

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hi, again! LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, remember Order of Operations. Using PEMDAS what do you do first?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i add 7+4 which equals to 11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good! Now the problem is 3x11x2-14/7. With that what do you do next?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply the numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you do that what does the problem turn out to be? <--- Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got -4 .. its not correct though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No that is not correct, and is there multiple choice?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50 361 363 586

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x11^2-14/7 PEMDAS Parentheses Exponents Multiplication <- same as below Division <------same as above Addition Subtraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x11 is 33

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct, but what comes first multiplication or exponents?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the exponents

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct, so then y r u doing multiplication before exponents?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so i would do 11^2 which is 121 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go! What is the next step to 3x121-14/7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x121= 363

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good! Now what is the next step 363-14/7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide 363 by 7 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at the problem again...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait 363-14 then i divide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope u divide first. what is 14/7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got the answer its 361 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, I know you know what to do, so I will just give you the answer... its 361

OpenStudy (anonymous):
