Well first locate the equation. The equation is x= 50 -6*y. *=times or multiplication. Well you already know what y is y = 4. So you take y which is 4 and plug into the equation or sub-situate for y. making the equation x = 50 - 6*4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First you would do the multiplication because the order of operations are:
\n" ); document.write( "P- ( )parenthesis
\n" ); document.write( "E- exponents
\n" ); document.write( "M- multiplication
\n" ); document.write( "A- addition
\n" ); document.write( "S- subtraction\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6*4= 24\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so now the equation is x= 50 - 24\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "do the subtraction, 50 - 24 = 26 and there is your answer
\n" ); document.write( "x=26\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
