Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The value of z is 20.

Step 1. Order of operations.

To evaluate any expression involving more than one operation, follow the below order of operations:

• First, evaluate expressions inside grouping symbols like parentheses ( ) or brackets [ ].
• Evaluate the exponents.
• Perform Multiplication and division from left to right.

Perform addition and subtraction from left to right.

Step 2. To find.

We have to find the value of $z$ from the given expression.

Step 3. Calculation.

Solving the equation, we get

$$\begin{gathered} z=32+4\left(-3\right) \\ =32-12 \\ =20 \end{gathered}$$             

 

Thus, the solution of the equation $z=32+4\left(-3\right)$ is 20.
