Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

22+(-32) is the same thing as 22-32.


22-32=-10

Let's see if the given options are equal:

Option A:


22+(-22)+(-10) \\22-22-10\leftarrow \text{Distribute -1 into the Parentheses.} \\0-10\\\boxed {-10}

Option A's expression has the same value as the expression given.

Option B:

22+(22)+(-10)


22+22-10\\44-10\\\boxed {34}

Option B's expression does not have the same value as the expression given.

Option C:


22+(-22)+(10)\\22-22+10\\0+10\\\boxed {10}

Option C's expression does not have the same value as the expression given.

Option D:


22+0+32\\22+32\\\boxed{54}

Option D's expression does not have the same value as the expression given.

The correct answer should be A: 22+(-22)+(-10).
