Question

Huda evaluated the expression below.

Negative 3 (8 minus 5) squared minus (negative 7) = negative 3 (3) squared minus (negative 7) = negative 3 (9) minus (negative 7) = 27 minus (negative 7) = 34.

What was Huda’s error?

Answer 1

Is is supposed to be written like this?
\[-3(8-5)^2-(-7)=-3(3)^2-(-7)=-3(9)-(-7)=27-(-7)\]

Answer 2

i am going to re do it

Answer 3

Oh k.

Answer 4

with the question

Answer 5

I can re do it

Answer 6

cant*

Answer 7

Oh ok then.

Is it supposed to be more than one equations?

Answer 8

\[-3(8-5)^2-(-7)=\]\[−3(3^2)−(−7)=\]\[(−3)(9)−(−7)=\]\[−27−(−7)\]\[=-20\]

Answer 9

That's the correct work, you should be able to find the error from there.
