Order of Operations and Expression Simplification

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate the expression (B^2 - 4ac) / 2a by substituting given values for a, B, and c. It guides through the process of simplifying the expression by handling the numerator and denominator separately, performing arithmetic operations in the correct order, and finally verifying the result using a graphing calculator. The expression simplifies to 90 when a = 2, B = 20, and c = 5.

What values are substituted for a, b, and c in the expression?

• a = 2, b = 20, c = 5

• a = 5, b = 20, c = 2

• a = 20, b = 5, c = 2

• a = 2, b = 5, c = 20
