OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

So we just need to remember the order of operations...Whatever is inside parenthesis is done first, So \[\large (10-6)^2 + 6*2 - (3+2)^2\] Simply what is inside the parenthesis first, what do you have after that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

work on the exponents

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Right...so we have \[\large (4)^2 + 12 - (5)^2\] Keep simplifying :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16 + 12 - 25 ?

OpenStudy (johnweldon1993):

Right :) which finally equals...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
