Sagot :
Karen is correct. (-2)2 is -4, not 4 in Matt's answer. Also, Karens, order of operations on the 4th line is correct. She does her division first, and Matt completes his subtraction first. PEMDAS, parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.
so in matt's equation, he made a mistake in the a transision from line 2 to line 3
in line 2: -4(-2)2
in line 3: -4(4)
the mistake is that -2 times 2 is not equal +4 it is equal to -4
also from lines 5 to 6 he made a mistake in order of opperations (mulit division then addition and subtract)
line 5: -10+30/5
line 6: 20/5
so he first subtracted 10 then divided, he should have divided then subtracted
so the equation should have equaled
Karen used the correct (-) times (+) property and the order of operations
so Karen is correct and Matt is wrong.
