SOLUTION: I really need help with this one. I need to evaluate:
{6(5 - 7) + 2}^3 ÷ (-2) - 3^2.
I got it all wrong the first time and I'd like to see what you come up with. Thanks so muc

Question 156093: I really need help with this one. I need to evaluate:
{6(5 - 7) + 2}^3 ÷ (-2) - 3^2.
I got it all wrong the first time and I'd like to see what you come up with. Thanks so much. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! {6(5 - 7) + 2}^3 ÷ (-2) - 3^2
={6*(-2) + 2)}^3/[(-2) - 3^2]
= {-12 + 2}^3/[-2 -9]
= {-10}^3/[-11]
=100/11
= 9.090909... if all the brackets are in the right places. There's some ambiguity in the denominator.
