Evaluate the following numerical expressions.a. 2(5+(3)(2)+4)b. 2((5+3)(2+4))c. 2(5+3(2+4))Can the parentheses in any of these expressions be removed without changing the value the expression?

Sagot :

So,

We're going to evaluate each expression as follows:

Let's begin with a:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2(5+(3)(2)+4) \\ 2(5+6+4) \\ 2(15) \\ =30 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, b:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2((5+3)(2+4)) \\ 2((8)(6)) \\ =2(48) \\ =96 \end{gathered}[/tex]

And, finally, c:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2(5+3(2+4)) \\ 2(5+3(6)) \\ 2(5+18) \\ 2(23) \\ =46 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Notice that if the parentheses change, the results wouldn't be the same.
