What is the correct result?

[Matt Agajanian]

So, since terms include 4ac (from the quadratic equation), 1/3a (meaning 1 divided by 3a because 3a is a term), 32e, 29c, and so forth, why does TI of all companies put implied multiplication down the hierarchy list? You’d think TI would have a handle on the dynamics of mathematics. And then again, TI had the hierarchy of implied multiplication's higher in priority before. So why the switch?
