Answer
$(-6)^{2} -8 \div 2(-3) = 48$
Work Step by Step
1. Complete the exponent in $(-6)^{2}$ by multiplying $(-6 \times -6)$
2. Do the division by dividing $(8)$ with $(2)$
3. Complete the multiplication
4. Finally, subtract the values
$= (-6)^{2} -8 \div 2(-3)$
$= ((-6) \times (-6)) - 8 \div 2 \times (-3)$
$= (36) - 8 \div 2 \times (-3)$
$= (36) - 4 \times (-3)$
$= 36 - (-12)$
$= 36 + 12$
$= 48$
