44 -4 x (5 + 3 x 2) simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?
A. -20
B. O
C. 440
D. 640
C is correct
44-4 =40
Following BEDMAS, 3x2 = 6, then you add 5 and get 11
Therefore it simplifies to 40(11), which equals 440, so C is your answer
To simplify the expression 44 - 4 x (5 + 3 x 2), we'll follow the order of operations, which is also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses: 5 + 3 x 2 = 5 + 6 = 11.
Now, we can rewrite the expression as 44 - 4 x 11.
Next, we'll perform the multiplication: 4 x 11 = 44.
Finally, we can substitute the result back into the expression: 44 - 44.
The subtraction gives us 0 as the final answer.
Therefore, option B. 0 is the correct answer.
