Answer:
-49
Step-by-step explanation:
Make sure you understand the difference between
-3² and (-3)²
-3² means square 3, then take its opposite. -3² is the same as -(3²) = -9
(-3)² means square the number -3, which means that (-3)² = (-3) × (-3) = 9
Ok, now we can start. Use the correct order of operations.
-3² + (2 - 6)(10) =
= -9 + (-4)(10)
= -9 + (-40)
= -9 - 40
= -49
