What is the process for evaluating expressions called?
An algebraic expression is a process for evaluating expressions. Replacing variables with numerals and following a standard order of operations is used for the process.
What is the rules for evaluating expressions?
The various operations within the expression are carried out using the order of operations: BIDMAS (UK) or PEMDAS (US).
Why is it important to use order of operations to evaluate algebraic expressions?
I think it is important because you need to know it when you get older.
What are the Order of operations for evaluating expressions?
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally is an often used mnemonic for remember the order of operations.Some people use the acronym PEMDAS.Either way, the order of operations isParentheses, Exponentiation, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction
What role does Order of Operations play in simplifying algebraic expressions What would happen if we didn't use order of operations?
The order of operations defines, in the absence of parentheses, the order in which binary operations in arithmetic (or algebra) may be carried out. If it were not used, most expressions with more than one kind of operation would have more than one answers. Alternatively, each expression would have to have a parentheses to indicate the Order of Operations and that would make expressions more difficult to read. eg 2+3*5 = 2+15 = 17 (following Order of Ops), but 2+3*5 = 5*5 = 25 (NOT following Order of Ops).
