Answer:
The following is equivalent to -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\text{Use PEMDAS to solve this equation.}\\\frac{4^3/(-12+2^2)}{(2*3)^2+(-5*2*3)+2}\\\text{Evaluate 2 squared in the first parenthesis.}\\\frac{4^3/(-12+4)}{(2*3)^2+(-5*2*3)+2}\\\text{Evaluate -12 + 4 in the first parenthesis.}\\\frac{4^3/-8}{(2*3)^2+(-5*2*3)+2}\\\text{Evaluate 2 times 3 in the next parenthesis.}\\\frac{4^3/-8}{(6^2+(-5*2*3)+2}\\\text{Evaluate -5 times 2 in the next parenthesis.}\\\frac{4^3/-8}{6^2+(-10*3)+2}\\\text{Evaluate -10 times 3 in that parenthesis.}\\[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4^3/-8}{6^2-30+2}\\\text{Now that the parenthesis are finished, start evaluating exponents, start in the numerator.}\\\frac{64/-8}{6^2-30+2}\\\text{Evaluate the remaining exponent.}\\\frac{64/-8}{36-30+2}\\\text{Evaluate the division in the numerator.}\\\frac{-8}{36-30+2}\\\text{Finally, evaluate the numbers in the denominator.}\\\frac{-8}{6+2}\\\frac{-8}{8}\\\text{Divide -8 by 8 to get your final answer:}\\-1[/tex]
