Please help will fan and medal! Evaluate the expression by using the given values of the variables. y ÷ 4 • 3 – 6 ÷ x + 8 where x = 3 and y = 24 A) 8 Eliminate B) 12 C) 24 D) –8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Beforehand thanks for all the help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Insert the values for x and y. \[24/4*3-6/x+8=?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Meant to write 3 instead of x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um can u simplify that for me? lol

OpenStudy (landon34):

you can simplify it using http://www.geteasysolution.com/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know the order of operations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried but it says it has to have an equal sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Landon34

OpenStudy (landon34):

did you not put in the equal sign?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought that might change it completely. I am so stupid lol

OpenStudy (landon34):

Ill try putting in the equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3*(24/4)-(6/3)+8 = 0\] \[3*6-(6/3)+8 = 0\] \[8-(6/3)+18 = 0\] \[8-2+18 = 0\] \[8+16 = 0\] \[24 = 0\]

OpenStudy (landon34):

never mind.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any help ppl?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. here it is- 24/4*3-6/3+8 order of operations Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Add Subtract omg i so wrong!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didn't follow order of operation!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
