Section 4: Integers and Order of Operations
-
Evaluate the expression using the correct order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
( -8 + 2 ) × 3 + 42 ÷ 8
Answer: ____________________
Answer Key
- 5x - 1
Work: 12x - 6 + 5 - 7x = (12x - 7x) + (-6 + 5) = 5x - 1 - y = 7
Work: 5y = 46 - 11 → 5y = 35 → y = 35 / 5 → y = 7 - 6n - 10
- 112.5 miles
Work: 1 / 25 = 4.5 / x → x = 25 × 4.5 → x = 112.5 - $595
Work: Discount = 0.30 × 850 = $255. Sale Price = $850 - $255 = $595 - 80%
Work: (40 / 50) × 100 = 0.8 × 100 = 80 -
a) 50.24 cm (Circumference = 2 × π × r = 2 × 3.14 × 8)
b) 200.96 cm2 (Area = π × r2 = 3.14 × 82 = 3.14 × 64)
- 15 cm
Work: 92 + 122 = c2 → 81 + 144 = c2 → 225 = c2 → c = 15 - -16
Work: (-6) × 3 + 16 ÷ 8 → -18 + 2 = -16
