Answer:

T = 49

Explanation:

T = w - ma

w = 85

m = 12

a = 3

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

T = (85) - (12) * (3)

Remember to follow PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions

First, multiply, then subtract:

T = 85 - (12 * 3)

T = 85 - 36

T = 49

T = 49 is your answer.
