12-: 3*(-8+(-4)^(2)-6)+2 plz answer with full steps

8, I believe?

Step-by-step explanation:

This is very hard with the expression not being in the correct form, but if i'm right, I believe you are saying: 3·(-8 + -4²-6) + 2. first, we have the -4², which is 16. Keep in mind i'm using PEMDAS for this equation. Then, instead of doing -8 + 16 and then (-8 +16) -6, we can combine the like terms (-8 and -6) and get -14. 16 - 14 is 2, and now we are out of the parentheses. 3*2 is 6, and 6+2 is 8. This means that your answer would be 8.

However, is you meant , then -16 -14, or -(16+14), is -30.

-30*2 is -60, and -60 + 2 is 58.

That means that your answer is either 58 or 8, depending on the format of the equation.
