-12/3*(-8+(-4)^2 - 6) + 2 how do you simplify this expression

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1442585391130:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well first start solving the problem inside the parentheses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-12 -10?

OpenStudy (ahvei):

i think -6 is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need to go through all the steps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[12/3* (-8+(16) -6)+2\]First you solve for what's inside the parentheses, I already squared the 4. \[(-8 + 16 -6) = 2\]Then we start working around that, \[\frac{ 12 }{ 3 }\times 2 + 2\] \[4\times2+2\] \[(4\times2)=8\] \[(8+2)=10\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It should simplify out to 10 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answers 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It should be, I believe I did everything right :)
