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

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
