The expression is.![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=9095b95f001cba6186bb3edb6d18f6f9.png\")
To simplify the expression follow the order of operations: (PEMDAS)
\1. Evaluate the expressions inside Brackets/Parenthesis (P).
\2. Evaluate Powers/Exponents (E).
\3. Multiply and/or Divide in order from left to right (MD).
\4. Add and/or Subtract in order from left to right (AS).
\A simple technique for remembering the order pf operations is turned into phrase
\“Please Excuse My Dear Aunty Sally”![\"\"](\"/userfiles/image/steps_images/step2.JPG\")
The first operation is squaring
\=
![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=0f883159cbca6ce47b8d1572693aae45.png\")
(![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=bbbf7bb48fb89fe4a4d089bb2ac04715.png\")
)
Next operation is subtraction
