Apply BEDMAS to all expressions you try to work out.

You work out the innermost brackets first and then use that result in working out the outermost brackets.

Example:

6 x (9 - (4 + 3))

Applying BEDMAS means you work out the bracketed expression:

9 - (4 + 3)

before doing the multiplication. So applying BEDMAS to this, you work out the bracketed expression:

4 + 3

before doing the subtraction:

6 x (9 - (4 + 3)) = 6 x (9 - 7)

= 6 x 2

= 12

What is 2(24 plus 9) plus 2(15 - 8)?

2(24 + 9) + 2(15 - 8) Remember in Maths ; do inside the brackets first !!!! 2(33) + 2(7) You can either factor '2' or multiply '2' to each set of brackets. Factor ; 2(33 + 7) => 2(40 ) = 80 or Multiply '2' to each set of brackets 2(33) + 2(7) => 66 + 14 = 80 As before. !!!!


What is the quadratic equation with the solutions -1 an 5?

The equation must have roots of x = -1 and x = 5 So: x + 1 = 0 and x - 5 = 0 Therefore: (x + 1)(x - 5) = 0 Expanding the brackets gives the equation: x2 - 4x - 5 = 0


When you square each side of an equation is the resulting equation equivalent to the original?

No. The resulting equation has more solutions. For example, x = 2 has only one solution and that is x = 2.butx2= 4, the squared equation, has two solutions: x = +2 and x = -2No. The resulting equation has more solutions. For example, x = 2 has only one solution and that is x = 2.butx2= 4, the squared equation, has two solutions: x = +2 and x = -2No. The resulting equation has more solutions.

What is an equation of the circle whose diameter has endpoints -3 1 and 5 -2?

The equation works out as: (x-1)2+(y+0.5)2 = 18.25 Equation of a circle: (x-a)2+(y-b)2 = radius2 whereas a and b are the coordinates of the circle's centre
