Use the order of operations to evaluate: −7.6 − 2[9 + (−6.8)]

First, simplify the parentheses: [9 + (−6.8)] = 2.2. Now the expression is: −7.6 − 2(2.2)

Since there are no exponents in this problem, the next step is 1. (- 7.6)2.2 2. (- 7.6) – 2 3. (- 2)2.2 4. 2.22

Simplify the previous step and you get 1. -7.6(-4.4) 2. -7.6 + 2.2 3. -7.6 + 4.4 4. -7.6-4.4

The final answer is
