How do you simplify #abs(2times(1-3))divabs(4times[3times(1-3)-1)#?

Answer 1

Follow the PEMDAS sequence.

Parentheses: |2×(−2)|÷|4×[3×(−2)−1)]| Exponents: (none) Multiplication/Division: Apart from other parentheses, proceed from left to right in the expression, grouping the sections requiring absolute value of the result. |(−4)|÷|4×[(−6)−1)]| ; |(−4)|÷|4×[(−7)]| ; |(−4)|÷|(−28)| 4÷28 = 0.143

To simplify the expression (\frac{|2 \times (1 - 3)|}{|4 \times [3 \times (1 - 3) - 1]|}), we first need to evaluate the absolute values and then perform the operations within them.

(|2 \times (1 - 3)| = |-4| = 4)
(|3 \times (1 - 3) - 1| = |3 \times (-2) - 1| = |-6 - 1| = |-7| = 7)

Now, we have:

[\frac{4}{4 \times 7} = \frac{1}{7}]

So, the simplified form of the expression is (\frac{1}{7}).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
