To evaluate the expression, substitute the value of z, which is 12, into the expression.
12 ÷ 4 - 8 * 12 +2 * (12 - 5)
Simplify the expression using the order of operations.
3 - 96 + 2 * 7
Multiply first.
3 - 96 + 14
Combine like terms.
-93 + 14
-79
The expression evaluates to -79 when z is equal to 12.
Therefore, the answer is -79.
