Evaluate the expression: –(31 + 2) + 72 – (–5)2. a. –40 b. 41 c. –5 d. –9

The correct answer is 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression and we are supposed to evaluate it:

– (31 + 2) + 72 – (–5) 2

Solving the terms inside the brackets first, following the order of operations to solve a mathematical expression to get:

= - (33) + 72 - (-5) 2

Then we will do the multiplications to get:

= - (33) + 72 - (-10)

Further adding and subtracting the terms:

= 39 - (-10)

= 39 + 10

= 49

6x = 48

i hope this . 6 cards each and a total of $48. dvide each side by 6 and you will have your answer.
