Answer:
1/2 - 3(1/2 + 1)²
simplify the expression (1/2 + 1)
1/2 - 3•(3/2)²
using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first
(3/2)² = 9/4
rewrite the equation
1/2 - 3 • (9/4)
multiply 3 by (9/4)
1/2 - (27/4)
subtract
-25/4
(1 + 1/3)² - 2/9
simplify the expression (1 + 1/3)
(4/3)² - 2/9
using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first
(4/3)² = 16/9
rewrite the equation
(16/9) - (2/9)
subtract
14/9
terms is x first then terms in y and constant after the equals
Its C
