Use PEMDAS
figure out everything inside the parentheses first, you still have to do PEMDAS inside of the parentheses also.
I will attach an image of how I got the first answer -7,867, sorry if my handwriting is sorta sloppy

you can watch answer in photo. by the way where r u from?
Answer:
The answer is -343.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a term doesn't have an exponent, it's considered that the exponent is 1 (so basically, (-7)² x (-7)^1.
Multiply the terms with the same base (by adding the exponents - (-7)²+1<- (as the exponential value) (couldn't find the sign so sorry.)
Add the numbers: (-7)³
A negative base raised to an odd power equals a negative: -7³
Write the problem out: -(7 x 7 x 7).
Multiply: -343
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50
