Answer:

56

Explanation:

To solve we must use the order of operations which is PEMDAS.

P-Parenthesis

E-Exponents

M-Multiplication

D-Division

A-Addition

and S-Subtraction

First we multiply -3 and 6 which gives us -18. So our equation is now 22-18+52.

Next we do addition. -18+52 is 34, plus 22 gives us 56.

Hope this helps :)
