Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The expression to evaluate is (0.3÷0.15)2+4.2(0.3 \div 0.15)^{2} + 4.2.
2. We need to follow the order of operations: parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), addition and subtraction (from left to right).

STEP 2

1. Evaluate the division inside the parentheses.
2. Apply the exponent.
3. Perform the addition.

STEP 3

Evaluate the division inside the parentheses:
0.3÷0.15 0.3 \div 0.15
Calculate:
0.30.15=2 \frac{0.3}{0.15} = 2

STEP 4

Apply the exponent to the result from Step 1:
(2)2 (2)^{2}
Calculate:
22=4 2^{2} = 4

STEP 5

Perform the addition with the result from Step 2:
4+4.2 4 + 4.2
Calculate:
4+4.2=8.2 4 + 4.2 = 8.2
The evaluated expression is:
