Exercise 35 Page 379

To evaluate the given numeric expression, we need to remember the order of operations. The acronym PEMDAS can help with that! Let's now consider our expression. 10 - 4 sqrt(1/16) We first need to calculate the square root. Because we know that (14)^2=116, we know that sqrt(116)=14. 10-4sqrt(116) calculate root ⟶ 10-4(14) Now we can finish evaluating our expression. We will multiply the term inside the parentheses by the 4, and then subtract the result from 10.
