Question

-2(7-10)^2/-3+1 show all steps, thanks. Simplify

Answer 1

$\frac{-2(7-10)^{2} }{-3} +1$ equals 7.

First, simplify 7 - 10 to -3. Your problem should look like: -2 × $\frac{(-3)^2}{-3} + 1$.
Second, since the power of 2 is even, the result will be positive. Your problem should look like: -2 × $\frac{3^2}{-3} + 1$.
Third, simplify $3^{2}$ to get 9. Your problem should look like: -2 × $\frac{9}{-3} + 1$.
Fourth, simplify -2 × $\frac{9}{-3}$ to 2 × $\frac{9}{3}$. Your problem should look like: 2 × $\frac{9}{3}$ + 1.
Fifth, simplify 2 × $\frac{9}{3}$ to $\frac{18}{3}$. Your problem should look like: $\frac{18}{3} + 1$.
Sixth, simplify $\frac{18}{3}$ to 6. Your problem should look like: 6 + 1.
Seventh, add 6 + 1. Your problem should look like: 7, which is your answer.
