I keep getting 7.. *trying again*

To find the value of the expression, we need to follow the order of operations, which is commonly known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, and Addition and Subtraction from left to right). Here's how we can solve it step by step:
Step 1: Evaluate the expressions inside the parentheses:
(3 + 2) x 5 - 6(6/2) becomes
5 x 5 - 6(6/2)
Step 2: Simplify any multiplication or division from left to right:
5 x 5 = 25
6(6/2) = 6(3) = 18
Step 3: Apply the remaining operations from left to right:
25 - 18 = 7
Therefore, the value of the expression (3+2)x5-6(6/2) is 7. None of the given options (A, B, C, D) matches the correct answer.
