To simply the expression of
10*(-2c)*3
I need to make sure I understand it, would the answer be
30-2c?
Or would it be -60c?
-60c
10*(-2c)*3=( -20c)*3= -60c
To simplify the expression 10*(-2c)*3, follow the order of operations, which is parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division (from left to right), and finally addition/subtraction (from left to right).
First, multiply the values inside the parentheses: 10 * (-2c) = -20c.
Next, multiply the result (-20c) by 3: -20c * 3 = -60c.
So, the simplified expression is -60c. Your answer, 30-2c, is not correct because it does not correctly apply the order of operations.
