Glossary Terms

algebraic order of operations - rules for computation to avoid errors and understanding

inclusion symbols – parentheses ( ), brackets [ ], and braces { }. Used to group numbers and variables as a single quantity.

Rules and Properties

The Algebraic Order of Operations

1. Perform all operations within grouping symbols from innermost outward.

2. Perform all operations with exponents.

3. Perform all multiplications and divisions in order from left to right.

4. Perform all additions and subtractions in order from left to right.

Use the order of Operations to simplify the following

3 – 12 ÷ 4

3 – 3

0

6² ÷ 4 · 3

36 ÷ 4 · 3

9 · 3

27(8 · 7+ 2) + (3 · 2 – 2 ·2)

(56 + 2) + (6 – 4)

58 + 2

60

Use the order of operations to 3valuate 5x² + 7y when x is 3

and y is 2

5(3)² + 7(2)

5 · 9 + 14

45 + 14

59

Evaluate 2 {2 [2 (3) +1] +1} + 1

2 {2 [2 (3) +1] + 1} + 1

2 {2 [6 + 1] + 1} + 1

2 {2 [7] + 1} + 1

2 {14 + 1} + 1

2{15} + 1

30 + 1
