Consider the expression [15+(−5)]+6/2. What is the result of the first simplification that would need to take place, according to the order of operations?
According to the order of operations, the first simplification that would need to take place is the addition within the parentheses: [15+(−5)].
This simplifies to 10.
Consider the following expression: 4+(−6)⋅2/−(−3)^2. What is the simplified denominator?
The simplified denominator is (−3)^2.
(-3)^2 simplifies to 9.
Are you sure
I apologize for any confusion. I made a mistake in my previous response.
The expression is: 4+(−6)⋅2/−(−3)^2.
The first simplification to take place in this expression would be the calculation of (-3)^2, since exponentiation is done before any multiplication or division.
(-3)^2 simplifies to 9.
Consider the following expression: 4+(−6)⋅2/−(−3)^2. What is the simplified denominator?
The simplified denominator in the expression 4+(−6)⋅2/−(−3)^2 is (-3)^2.
(-3)^2 simplifies to 9.
That is wrong bot
I apologize for the incorrect response. Let's simplify the expression correctly.
The expression 4+(-6)×2/(-(-3)^2) can be simplified as follows:
First, we need to evaluate the exponent (-3)^2, which is equal to 9.
Next, we perform the multiplication -6 × 2, which equals -12.
Finally, we divide -12 by 9 to get -12/9.
Therefore, the simplified denominator is 9.

Julio and Ashley went to the drive-in theater. They paid an entry fee for the car and individual entry fees for themselves. Their total cost can be modeled by the expression 2.5x+10. Which of the following answer choices accurately interprets a part of the algebraic expression?
Each individual entry fee was $10.00.
Each individual entry fee was $10.00.
The entry fee for the car was $2.50.
The entry fee for the car was $2.50.
The entry fee for the car was $10.00.
The entry fee for the car was $10.00.
The entry fee for the car was $12.50.
The correct interpretation is: The entry fee for the car was $2.50.
In the given expression 2.5x + 10, the term 2.5x represents the entry fee for the car, while the constant term 10 represents the individual entry fee for themselves.
Given the equation 8x−3y=2x+9y, which of the following statements is correct?
8, −3, 2, and 9 are coefficients.
8, negative 3 , 2, and 9 are coefficients.
8, −3, 2, and 9 are constants.
8, negative 3 , 2, and 9 are constants.
There are four variables.
There are four variables.
8 is the only factor of 8x.
8 is the only factor of 8 x .
The statement "8, −3, 2, and 9 are coefficients" is correct.
In the equation 8x−3y=2x+9y, the coefficients are the numbers multiplied by the variables. Here, the coefficients are 8, −3, 2, and 9.
An equation can be broken down into expressions, terms, variables, constants, and coefficients. In the equation 0.4−7x=3, what is/are the constant(s) in the equation?
0.4
0.4
3
3
0.4 and 3
0.4 and 3
−7
The constant(s) in the equation 0.4−7x=3 are:
0.4 and 3
0.4 is a constant because it does not have any variables multiplied by it.
3 is also a constant because it is a fixed value and does not have any variables multiplied by it.
Use the grouping symbols to interpret the following equation: x/8=3(x+4)/2. Which expression in the equation represents a product?

Consider the expression [3(4^2+32÷4−5)]. Which quotient must be found to simplify the expression?
48÷4
48 divided by 4
96÷4
96 divided by 4
144÷4
144 divided by 4
32÷4
To simplify the expression [3(4^2+32÷4−5)], the quotient 32÷4 must be found.
This is because within the brackets, there is an addition, a division, and a subtraction, all involving the number 32 and 4. So, to simplify, we need to find the value of 32 divided by 4, which is equal to 8.
