Simplify the following expression. 12 - 5[(4 + 2)/\2 - (22 + 10)] a. -198 b. -238 c. -18 d. -98

12 - 5[(4 +2)² - (22 + 10)]

Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, solve both parenthesis

12 - 5[(4 +2)² - (22 + 10)]

12 - 5[(6)² - (32)]

Next, solve the exponent

(6)² = 6 x 6 = 36

12 - 5[(36) - (32)]

Then, solve the bracket.

36 - 32 = 4

12 - 5[4]

Next, multiply

-5 x 4 = -20

Finally, subtract.

12 - 20 = -8

None of the above. The answer is -8. Please check the answers and the question again

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d
