  1. -18Cevap
  2. B
    12
  3. C
    -2
  4. D

Cevap

-18
The correct evaluation requires solving the parentheses first to obtain −2-2. Next, multiplying 44 by −2-2 yields −8-8. Finally, adding −8-8 to the initial −10-10 results in −18-18.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the expression inside the parentheses.
6−8=−26 - 8 = -2
According to the order of operations, operations enclosed in parentheses must be completed first.
2
Perform the multiplication.
4×(−2)=−84 \times (-2) = -8
Multiplication takes precedence over addition.
3
Perform the final addition.
−10+(−8)=−18-10 + (-8) = -18
Addition is the only remaining operation.
