The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression `8 xx 7 - 8 + 40 -: 2`, we first need to interpret the symbols according to the given definitions: - `xx` means `+` - `-:` means `-` - `-` means `xx` (which is `+`) - `+` means `-:` (which is `-`) Now, let's rewrite the expression using these definitions: 1. **Rewrite the expression**: - `8 xx 7` becomes `8 + 7` - `- 8` becomes `+ 8` - `+ 40` becomes `- 40` - `-: 2` becomes `- 2` So, the expression `8 xx 7 - 8 + 40 -: 2` becomes: \[ 8 + 7 + 8 - 40 - 2 \] 2. **Perform the operations step by step**: - First, calculate `8 + 7`: \[ 8 + 7 = 15 \] - Now, add `8` to `15`: \[ 15 + 8 = 23 \] - Next, subtract `40` from `23`: \[ 23 - 40 = -17 \] - Finally, subtract `2` from `-17`: \[ -17 - 2 = -19 \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ -19 \]
