The value of the expression is 7 + 9 * (6 - 2) = 7 + 9 * 4 = 7 + 36 = 43
To find the value of the expression, follow the order of operations (PEMDAS or BODMAS), which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).
First, evaluate the expression inside the parentheses:
6 - 2 = 4.
Next, multiply 9 by the result:
9 * 4 = 36.
Finally, add 7 to the product:
7 + 36 = 43.
Therefore, the value of the expression is 43.
To find the value of the given expression, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) which stands for Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction.
Let's break down the expression step by step:
1. Evaluate what is inside the parentheses first:
6 minus 2 equals 4.
2. Now, multiply the result by 9:
4 times 9 equals 36.
3. Finally, add 7 to this result:
36 plus 7 equals 43.
Therefore, the value of the expression 7 plus 9 times (6 minus 2) is 43.
So the correct answer is 43.
