Answer:
- [tex]\Large\boxed{\sf{-2}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the order of operations.
-6+(-2)²
Note: PEMDAS stands for:
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiply
- Divide
- Add
- Subtract
First, do exponents.
[tex]\sf{-6+(-2)^2}\\\\\\\sf{(-2)^2=2^2=4}[/tex]
Then, rewrite the problem down.
[tex]\sf{-6+4}[/tex]
Add or subtract the numbers from left to right.
-6+4=-2
[tex]\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{-2}}[/tex]
- Therefore, the final answer is -2.
