standard_description: Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Evaluate the following numerical expressions.
a.
$${-2(5+(3)(-2)+4)}$$
b.
$${-2((5+3)(-2+4))}$$
c.
$${-2(5+3(-2+4))}$$
d.   Can the parentheses in any of these expressions be removed without changing the value of the expression?
Problem 2
An expression is shown below with three expressions that are
not
equivalent to it. Explain the error(s) that were made in writing each expression.
$$\frac{6-3(4-8)}{2(1+2)^2}$$
a.
$$\frac{6-3(4-8)}{2(1+2)^2}$$
$$\neq \frac{3(-4)}{2(3)^2}$$
b.
$$\frac{6-3(4-8)}{2(1+2)^2}$$
$$\neq \frac{6-3(-4)}{(6)^2}$$
c.
$$\frac{6-3(4-8)}{2(1+2)^2}$$
$$\neq \frac{6-12}{(2+4)^2}$$
d.   Evaluate the expression.
Problem 3
Evaluate:
$${\frac{1}{2}(-3-1)^2-\left ( 10 \div \frac{5}{6} \right )}$$
