You can't change the sum by changing the grouping. Any way you cut it, you will always get 226, as you only have addition operations, and the commutative property [a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c] means that the sum will always be the same.
Answer:
$120.00
Step-by-step explanation:
2000/100 = $20 = 1%
20x12 = $240 = annual intrest = 12m
June 15 - December 15 = 6m
240/2 = $120 for half a year intrest!
The answer is -4x+64+2x^2
