To change the order of operations in the expression 17 - 8 - 5, you can place parentheses around the first two terms: (17 - 8) - 5. This will first calculate 17 - 8, which equals 9, and then subtract 5, resulting in 4. Alternatively, you could also place parentheses around the last two terms: 17 - (8 - 5), which would yield 17 - 3, resulting in 14.
around the 8 and the 5
17 - (8 - 5) = 14
To correctly solve the expression 17 - 8 - 5 ÷ 14 using the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS), you would first perform the division operation, then subtraction. The correct placement of parentheses to indicate the order of operations would be 17 - (8 - (5 ÷ 14)). This ensures that the division is done before the subtraction.
The parentheses would be placed thus: 27 - (49 / 7 + 12) = 8
To solve the equation (5 - 3(x - 4) = 8), first distribute the (-3) to the terms inside the parentheses: (5 - 3x + 12 = 8). Simplifying this gives (17 - 3x = 8). Next, subtract 17 from both sides to get (-3x = -9). Finally, divide by (-3) to find (x = 3).

4*5+2*8=176
Where parentheses can be rearranged and do no change the equation. 5*(8*2)=(8*5)*2
(1 + 8)*(8 + 2) = 90
-20 Yes, that's correct. This is what it means:- 2(-3-5)-(2 + 2) And that is 2 x (-3-5) - (2 +2) = 2 x (-8) -(4) = -16 - 4 = -20
((5*6+2)+1 There ya go!
1.) ((5*6)+2)/4 2.) ((3*8)+3)/3
(7+5) - (8-3) = 7proof:-(12) - (5) = 7
8 + 5 + 4 = 17
