Replace a and b in the equation with their values given:
-0.5(7(-6)-12(-10)-(8.4(-10)-14(-6))
Multiply within the parentheses
-0.5(-42 + 120) -(-84 + 84)
Add inside the parenthesis:
-0.5(78)-0
Multiply:
-.05 x 78 = -39
The answer is -39
The answer is 21, because if you multiply 21 times 3 you get 63
