Evaluate 5 – (4 + 2)2

Answer 1

-7

Explanation:

The answer would be -7 if you follow PEMDAS. Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. Start with what's inside the parenthesis. (4+2) which would equal 6. So now your equation looks like this:

5 - (6)2

There is nothing else you can do with the parenthesis, and there are no exponents, so the next thing to do is the multiplication. (6)2 which equals 12.

Now your equation looks like this:

5 - 12

All that's left to do is just take 5 minus 12. Which equals -7. Hope this helped!
