Question

What is the value of 4 to the second power - 2 ( 3 times 5 + 1)

Answer 1

4 to the second power = 16. that leaves us with 16 - 2 ( 3 x 5 + 1). next, multiply 3 x 5 = 15. that leaves us with 16 - 2 ( 15 + 1 ). next, add 15 + 1 = 16. that leaves us with 16 - 2 ( 16 ). next, multiply 2 ( 16 ) = 32. finally, subtract 16 - 32 = -16

Explanation:

your answer is -16. hope this helps
