Order of Operations Question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3*4+3^{2}*8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well the power of 2 is really a multiplication so do 3*4 then 3*3*8 then add the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in which i would get 84 but these are the real answers that i have too choose from A.312 B.168

@Hero

hero (hero):

I agree with 84 as the correct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but you are only allowed too chose from A.312 or B.168

hero (hero):

I can't really tell you which one to pick. You'll have to go over that with your instructor, but if I were forced to pick one, I'd pick the choice that is closer to 84.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

its interesting that 168 is double 84... perhaps just a coincidence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks
