-5(-2) please help me and the other people out there

10

Step-by-step explanation:

When two numbers are placed together that close with parenthesis, you are most likely (99.9% of the time), going to be multiplying them.

Note that:

When you multiply two positive numbers, your result is positive.

When you multiply one negative and one positive number, your result will be negative.

When you multiply two negative numbers, your result will be positive.

Multiply -5 with -2: -5 * -2 = 10

10 is your answer.
