Hurry i just failed my other test and this is the last attempt me im begging you using the order of operations, what should be done first when evaluating this expression?

negative one-half divided by 2 (9 + 3) minus 4 minus three-fourths (8)
divide negative one-half divided by 2.
add 9 + 3.
multiply negative three-fourths (8).
subtract 3 minus 4.

This answer might be incorrect because the question content is incomplete. But i'll try anyway!

Step-by-step explanation:

When evaluating expressions, you must follow the rule of PEMDAS

PEMDAS:

The rule is that you follow this order when evaluating. You cannot do a later step before a step in the beginning.

For example, you must evaluate exponents before doing division. Or else you won't get the right answer!

[Personally, I'd say your best choice is Add (9 + 3) because (9+3) is in parenthesis, and to follow PEMDAS you must evaluate parentheses first].

I hope this helps!

- sincerelynini
