19+ 25/5 - (2+6) =

5+ (8-3)^2 X (8+1) =

19+ 25/5 - (2+6) = 16

5+ (8-3)^2 X (8+1) = 240

Ms.Sue: (8-3) is to the second power, couldn't actually write it that way....is the answer stil 240???

Yes. You wrote it correctly.

(8 - 3)^2 = 5^2 = 25

To solve the equation 19 + 25/5 - (2 + 6), we will follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction) to simplify it step by step.

Step 1: Start by simplifying within parentheses:
2 + 6 = 8

Step 2: Solve the division operation:
25 / 5 = 5

Substitute the division result back into the equation:
19 + 5 - 8

Step 3: Perform the remaining addition and subtraction operations from left to right:
19 + 5 = 24
24 - 8 = 16

Therefore, the value of 19 + 25/5 - (2 + 6) is 16.

Now, let's solve the equation 5 + (8 - 3)^2 × (8 + 1) using the same order of operations.

Step 1: Start with the parentheses:
8 - 3 = 5

Step 2: Calculate the exponent:
5^2 = 25

Step 3: Perform the remaining multiplication and addition operations from left to right:
25 × (8 + 1) = 25 × 9 = 225

Step 4: Complete the addition operation:
5 + 225 = 230

Therefore, the value of 5 + (8 - 3)^2 × (8 + 1) is 230.
