Answer:

-22

Explanation:

Order of Operations:

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication and Division

Addition and Subtraction

First, you need to do parenthesis first so inside the parenthesis is 2+4 which is 6

Now the equation looks like this:

5 x 6-52

Since there are no exponents we can skip that step, next is multiplication so 5 x 6 is 30 so the equation now looks like this:

30-52

Subtract and you will have

-22

Hope this helps!
