Here's my work:
Remember PEMDAS:
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiplication
- Division
- Addition
- Subtraction
Also, remember to always go left to right.
(6+2)^2-4*3
Square everything in the parenthesis.
36+4-4*3
Multiply where you see a multiplication symbol from left to right.
36+4-12
Add.
40-12
Subtract.
28
Done!
