Question

Write out step by step what needs to be done in order to get the answer to the expressio

Answer 1

To get the answer for this expression, we can follow the next steps:

1. Obtain the product of each of the multiplications inside the square bracket:

$5\lbrack9(2)-2(8)\rbrack=5\cdot\lbrack9\cdot(2)-2\cdot(8)\rbrack=5\cdot\lbrack18-16\rbrack$

2.Now, subtract what is inside the right brackets, and then multiply the resulting numbers:

$5\cdot\lbrack2\rbrack=5\cdot2=10$

Therefore, the resulting answer is equal to 10.
