Answer 1

I'm practicing pre-algebra refreshing my memory but I don't know what I'm doing wrong here.I know the answer is 66 can someone tell me how I get to 66?
I thought I do PEMDAS?
22+(-8)+32-(-12)+8

Answer 2

This is embarrassing

Answer 3

Dont be embarrassed

Simplifying
22 + (-8) + 32 + -1(-12) + 8 = 0
22 + -8 + 32 + -1(-12) + 8 = 0

Multiply -1 * -12
22 + -8 + 32 + 12 + 8 = 0

Combine like terms: 22 + -8 = 14
14 + 32 + 12 + 8 = 0

Combine like terms: 14 + 32 = 46
46 + 12 + 8 = 0

Combine like terms: 46 + 12 = 58
58 + 8 = 0

Combine like terms: 58 + 8 = 66
66 = 0

Solving
66 = 0
