To simplify the expression 18 - 2x3 + 6/2^2, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

Step 1: First, we simplify the expression within parentheses or brackets. Since there are no parentheses or brackets, we move to the next step.

Step 2: Next, we evaluate exponents. Here, 2^2 means 2 raised to the power of 2, which is equal to 4.

18 - 2x3 + 6/4

Step 3: After evaluating exponents, we perform multiplication and division from left to right. First, we perform the multiplication operation 2x3, which equals 6.

18 - 6 + 6/4

Now, we perform the division operation 6/4, which equals 1.5.

18 - 6 + 1.5

Step 4: Finally, we perform addition and subtraction from left to right. 18 - 6 equals 12, and adding 1.5 gives us the final result.

12 + 1.5 = 13.5

Therefore, the simplified expression is 13.5.

THATS NOT RIGHT >:(

Apologies for the mistake. Let's redo the simplification of the expression 18 - 2x3 + 6/2^2 correctly:

Step 1: First, let's evaluate the exponent. 2^2 means 2 raised to the power of 2, which is equal to 4.

18 - 2x3 + 6/4

Step 2: Next, let's perform the multiplication. 2x3 is equal to 6.

18 - 6 + 6/4

Step 3: Now let's perform the division. 6 divided by 4 is equal to 1.5.

18 - 6 + 1.5

Step 4: Lastly, let's perform the addition and subtraction in order from left to right. Starting with 18 minus 6 equals 12, then adding 1.5 gives us the final result.

12 + 1.5 = 13.5

Therefore, the correct simplified expression is 13.5.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's simplify the expression 18 - 2x3 + 6^2/2 correctly:

Step 1: First, let's evaluate the exponent. 6^2 means 6 raised to the power of 2, which is equal to 36.

18 - 2x3 + 36/2

Step 2: Next, let's perform the multiplication. 2x3 is equal to 6.

18 - 6 + 36/2

Step 3: Now let's perform the division. 36 divided by 2 is equal to 18.

18 - 6 + 18

Step 4: Lastly, let's perform the addition and subtraction in order from left to right. Starting with 18 minus 6 equals 12, then adding 18 gives us the final result.

12 + 18 = 30

Therefore, the correct simplified expression is 30.
