solve: 48/2(9+x)=288

Same shit I said from jump. Dota, these cats just want to argue instead of listening to professionals. Mathway does not trump TI, Google, Wolfram Alpha, SASS, and Matlab!!!!!!

The explanation they gave for their results was horrible.

The common convention amongst pros is explained in the last paragraph of your quote. Cats will still argue though.

From Texas Instruments website..........

Does implied multiplication and explicit multiplication have the same precedence on TI graphing calculators?

Implied multiplication has a higher priority than explicit multiplication to allow users to enter expressions, in the same manner as they would be written. For example, the TI-80, TI-81, TI-82, and TI-85 evaluate 1/2X as 1/(2*X), while other products may evaluate the same expression as 1/2*X from left to right. Without this feature, it would be necessary to group 2X in parentheses, something that is typically not done when writing the expression on paper.

This order of precedence was changed for the TI-83 family, TI-84 Plus family, TI-89 family, TI-92 Plus, Voyage™ 200 and the TI-Nspire™ Handheld in TI-84 Plus Mode. Implied and explicit multiplication is given the same priority.

48/2(9+x)=288 x = 3
48/2(9+x)=2 x= -107/12

ok what the fuck is the real answer, ive seen too man y different ones being thrown around. i have 3, if it aint 3 why is it not 3
