When solving a mathematical expression, these ensure that certain operations are done first, even if they're in the middle of an equation.
Parentheses or Brackets
What is the answer to the equation 5x+3=5x-3
No solution
When will the product of a rational number times an irrational number be a rational number
When the rational number being multiplied is zero.

Doc McStuffins
What three-dimensional shape can be found in the deserts of Egypt?
Pyramid
This operation, symbolized by a raised small number, takes precedence after parentheses in the order of operations.
Exponents
SOVLE 5x+4=2x-7 ?
x=-11/3
x=-3.6666667
Why will the product of sqrt12 and sqrt3 result in a rational number?
Because the product is
sqrt36
, which is a perfect square, hence a rational number.

Solve for x:
7x-2+3x+9=-4x+5-2x
-\frac{2}{16}
-\frac{1}{8}
-0.125
Classify the expression 2/sqrt49+sqrt18/3 as rational or irrational. Explain your reasoning.
Irrational because a rational plus an irrational number is always irrational.
