Your end goal is to have $6000 total in 12 months. since you have $2400 already you can subtract that from 6000 leaving you with $3600 over the course of 12 months. since you already put $150 in a month over the course of 12 months you would have $1800 which is only half of the goal of $3600. in order for you to put in $3600 you would have to put an additional 150 in your savings along with your regular 150 making the answer b.
So first remember the order of operations. Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, addition, subtraction.
So we have the following problem.
-(3*2)2+4*3-2
Multiply the three and two inside the parentheses first.
-6*2+4*3-2
Next multiply any numbers that need multiplied.
-12+12-2
Next add and subtract from left to right to get an answer of...
-2
Hope this helps!
