Hello
Can anyone help me with a problem? I can get this answer using the calculator but when I try to right it out I get the wrong answer. Here is the problem and the way that I am doing it. The (2)after the 10 is to the 2nd power.
1-(4-10)2+3(-5)
1- -36 + 3*-5
37 + -15
22

So I get the answer 22 but it is actually -50

This is number 61 on page 354 in our book.
