74 659.

Solve for x:

y = 2 |x-6| +4

or

5+5

YOU CHOOSE.

x = √((1/2)y - 38)

For lack of desire to come up with a good equation right now:

(3 + 5) / 2

Is it 4?

7x2+6/5=

15.2

√(((10+4)(3-5))^2)

Um the answer is actually 4. *lol*
As for your math problem... Pass! I have no clue! :confused:

Yes - if you just put that into a calculator like that it would equal 4. HOWEVER, that is not the answer. You have to multiple 7 and 2, then divide 6 by 5 before you can add. That is the Order of Operations. See Below:

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

P - Parentheticals
E - Exponents
M - Multiplication
D - Division
A - Addition
S - Subtraction

This is the order in which things must be done. Therefore:

7*2+6/5 = 14+1.2 = 15.2

:)

As for my last equation - It all starts with the parentheticals and things canceling out.

√(((10+4)(3-5))^2)

Take away the square root and the "^2" because they cancel each other out. Then you get:

(10+4)(3-5)

Use the FOIL method (First Outer Inner Last)

30-50+12-20 = -28 :)

New equation:

10/2+3*5

It's either 2/5 or 2 with the remainer (r) of 5.

Equation:
Simplify.

6-(-3 + a - 2b +c)=

The answer was 20 lol. Remember the Order of Operations.

10/2 = 5
3*5 = 15
5 + 15 = 20

:)

Yours cannot be simplified without something on both sides of the "=" and without saying simplify for "*" :)

Answer:
6-(-3 + a - 2b +c)=
6+3-a+2b-c)=
9-a+2b-c

It's basic Algebra!
"When a parenthesis is preceded by a minus sign, to remove the parentheses, change the sign of each term within the parentheses."
I probably should've stated that to begin with. Gomen ne! :escape:

New Equation:
"Parentheses (). Parentheses are used to group numbers or variables. Everything inside parentheses must be done before any other operations."

Simplify.

50(2+6)=

Ahh - gomen. I wasn't thinking about that rule.

Answer = 400

New equation - not feeling like coming up with anything special:

2(3+4)-8/4

New equation - not feeling like coming up with anything special:

2(3+4)-8/4


2(3+4)-8/4=x

2(7)-8/4=x

14-2=x

12=x
