How do I solve this I'm confused ty

Question

-14+18(-5)-11+12

Answer 1

-14 + 18(-5) - 11 + 12 = 

 

-14 + -90 - 11 + 12 = <--- multiply before addition/subtraction; PEMDAS

 

-14 + -90 + -11 + 12 <---- changes subtraction to addition; subtracting 11 is the same as adding -11

 

-104 + -11 + 12

 

-115 + 12

 

= - 103

Answer 2

-14 + 18(-5) - 11 + 12

 

Do the multiplication first, 18(-5) = -90:

 

-14 - 90 - 11 + 12

 

Now do the additions and subtractions left to right:

 

-115 + 12 = -103

 

Hope you're dry and safe.
