8x6-7x2=
82 or is it 34
I have added parentheses where I think they might go. If not, please clarify.
(8x6)-(7x2)=
8x6=48
-7x2=-14
48-14=??
it's 82
The answer to your question is 34. You have to use order of operations. first do 8x6 which is 48, then 7x2 which is 14 so subtract 48 and 14.
To solve the equation 8x6 - 7x2, you need to follow the order of operations, which is PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).
Let's start with the multiplication. Multiply the coefficients (numbers) with their respective variables:
8x6 = 48x
7x2 = 14x
Now let's substitute these values back into the equation:
48x - 14x
Finally, combine the like terms by subtracting the coefficient of x:
48x - 14x = 34x
Therefore, the simplified form of the equation 8x6 - 7x2 is 34x.
