What is the result of simplifying the expression 5(2) - 3(4)?

10
4
2
-2

The correct answer is: -2

To simplify the expression 5(2) - 3(4), we first perform the multiplications. Calculate 5 multiplied by 2, which gives us 10. Then, calculate 3 multiplied by 4, resulting in 12. Now we can substitute these values back into the expression, getting 10 - 12. Finally, subtracting 12 from 10 leads us to -2. Thus, the result of simplifying the expression 5(2) - 3(4) is -2.
