Astudent simplifies an expression as shown below. find the error and simplify the expression correctly. 23 - 8 times 2 + (3 by the power of 2) = 23 - 8 times 2 + 9 = 15 times 2 + 9 = 30 + 9 = 39 what operation did the student do first? is this correct? explain. what operation did the student do next? is this correct? explain. now simplify the expression 23 - 8 times 2 + 3 by the power of 2 correctly.

First, the student performed what was inside of the parentheses and was exponential, which is correct. We know this because of the rules called order of operations, outlined by PEMDAS, which tells us to perform mathematical operations in the following order: parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.

So by the rules I just outlined, next the student should have performed the multiplication, but instead performed subtraction, which is incorrect.

The following is the correct simplification of the expression:

23 - 8 times 2 + 3 by the power of 2

So first we should perform parentheses, but there are none. So we move to the next option in the list, which is exponents, which we do have (3^2).

23 - 8 * 2 + 3^2

23 - 8 * 2 + 9

Next in PEMDAS comes multiplication and division. This means the next step in simplifying the expression is to evaluate 8*2.

23 - 16 + 9

Next in PEMDAS is addition, so we should perform the operation -16 + 9.

23 - 7

Finally, the last step in PEMDAS is to simplify the remaining operation (subtraction).

16

Therefore, the student did the first step correctly but performed the second step incorrectly. The final answer should be 16 after simplification.

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.
