Question

−26−(6)2

Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

To evaluate the expression \(-26 - (6)^2\), we first need to calculate \((6)^2\):

\[ (6)^2 = 36 \]

Now we can substitute this back into the expression:

\[ -26 - 36 \]

Now, we perform the subtraction:

\[ -26 - 36 = -62 \]

So, the value of the expression is \(-62\).
