Question

8 squared plus 9 left parenthesis 12 divided by 3 times 2 right parenthesis minus 7

I am confused? How would I write this out and solve it?

Answer 1

`√(8 + 9) (12 / 3 \\ * 2) - 7 = x`

`√(17) (4 * 2) - 7`


`√(17) (8) - 7`

`4.12 * 8 - 7`

`32.96 - 7`

`x = 25.96 \: which \: is \: around \: to \: 26`
