Question

is this right11+144-(-11)*12
155-(-11)*12
144*12
1,928
simplify -(8m)-(-7m+2)
15m-2
according to order of operation what should be done first when evaluating this expression do not solve [10-(-2+1)]-9

Answer 1

11 + 12^2 - (-11)*12
11 + 144 + 132
155 + 132
287
you should perform multiplication operation (the -11*12) first, not subtraction (not the 144-11).

-(8m) - (-7m + 2)
-8m + 7m - 2
-m - 2
you should distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the parenthesis. thus their sign change to its opposite (the -7m becomes +7m and +2 becomes -2)

for the third question, the first operation you must do is to simplify the terms inside the parenthesis. recall PEMDAS: Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

hope this helps~ :)
