Answer:

7

Solution:

  • Let's evaluate this expression.
  • Please notice the hint: "Remember the word PEMDAS".
  • Here's what PEMDAS stands for.
  • P -> Parentheses
  • E -> Exponents
  • M -> Multiplication
  • D -> Division
  • A -> Addition
  • We do not have parentheses here, but we do have exponents (
    2^2)

  • 2^2 equals 2×2, or 4.
  • Right now the expression is equivalent to
  • 4×3-5
  • According to PEMDAS, the next operation is M, or Multiplication:
  • 12-5
  • And finally, subtract:
  • 7

Hope it helps.
