Respuesta :

the answer would be -x7.7 alexa helped solve it to

40÷{20-4×(7-4)]

First you need to solve what is in parentheses

40÷{20-4×3]

Do order of operations inside of absolute value bars, which is 4x3

40÷{20-12]

Solve inside of absolute value bars

40÷[8]

Simplify(8 remains positive)

40÷8

simplify

5

The final answer is 5
