Final answer:
To solve the equation 34 + 2 ⋅ 5, we need to apply the order of operations and the answer is 44. Hence the correct answer is option A
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation 34 + 2 ⋅ 5, we need to apply the order of operations, which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). In this equation, there are no parentheses or exponents, so we move on to multiplication. We first multiply 2 and 5, which equals 10. Then, we add 34 and 10, which equals 44. Therefore, the answer is option a) 44.
