I think I can help you evaluate this expression:
\([-2-((-4)^2-2)]*(-4-(-3))\)
\([-2-((-4)^2-2)]*(-4-(-3))\) | This is the original expression. First, evaluate parentheses from left to right. Of course, you have to order of operations within a set of parentheses. Do \((-4)^2=-4*-4=16\) |
\([-2-(16-2)]*(-4-(-3))\) | Do \(16-2\) because those are the innermost parentheseses. |
\([-2-14]*(-4-(-3))\) | Do \(-2-14\) because you evaluate parentheses from left to right! |
\(-16*(-4-(-3))\) | Now, evaluate \(-4-(-3)=-4+3=-1\). |
\(-16*-1\) | Evaluate -16*-1. |
\(16\) | This is your answer |
