Question

3
Evaluate x + xy if x=-3, y=10

Answer 1

-33

Explanation:

So we start out by plugging in the values for x and y which becomes:

-3 + (-3 x 10)

Then we do PEMDAS which tells us to solve the values inside the parentheses first( P in PEMDAS) which becomes:

-3 + -30

A negative number added to another negative number stays negative, giving us the answer:

-33
