For this case we have the following expression:
[tex]-\frac{1}{4}(8 + 12) - (- 2 + 5)[/tex]
Simplifying we have:
We solve the operations that are within the parentheses
[tex]-\frac{1}{4}(20) - (3)[/tex]
Multiplied you have:
[tex]-5-3[/tex]
Adding, taking into account that equal signs are added and the same sign is placed, we have to:
[tex]-5-3 = -8[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]-\frac{1}{4}(8 + 12) - (- 2 + 5)=-8[/tex]
