Addition can be used to solve a subtraction problem by using the concept of inverse operations. By adding the opposite of a number to another number, the result will be the same as subtracting the first number from the second number. This can be helpful in mental math or when trying to simplify complex subtraction problems.

How would you describe the order of operations to solve any given problem?
Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction
Why was pemdas created?
Pemdas was created, because it is the order in which you can solve problems. (order of operation) Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction If we didn't have Pemdas everything would be all mixed up, and the answer would be wrong. Pemdas is the rules of order in which how to solve a problem.
What does MATH algorithim stand for?
An algorithm is the series of steps to solve problem, so you would be looking for the series of steps to solve a math problem.
Which equation would you use to solve the following word problem?
There was no word problem, so it would be a null equation.
How would you solve for x?
It depends on the problem you are trying to solve. like; 2x + 3 = 13. it would be "5". (Multiplication.) or x/3 = 6. x= 18. this is a division problem. Like I said, it all depends on your problem.

How do you simplify a problem?
you just solve it for ex: -8--3to simplify it you would first make the problem in addition now since you know two negatives make a possotive so it would be -8 + 3 that's how to simplify , but if the question also asks to solve then the answer would be -5 because -8 + 3 is -5-8--3-8+3= -5

It could solve it because there would be a unity and once there is unity there would be cooperation
How did alchemists similar to and different from modern scientists?
The alchemists were the first chemists. But in addition to mixing chemicals, they also believed that magic would help with their experiments and formulas. It didn't. But their experiments led to the development of the science of chemistry.
