Nice thread tbf, it's good to see people helping others...I don't personally as I'm a major Maths "geek", but it is cool :)

Assuming you're meant to be asking us to find the value of a you either mean...
-2a = -36

so a=18

or

a^1 + a^7 - a^10 = -36 which is outrageously negative. and not worth working out.

Okay here's one from Facebook (of all places. I know)
1+1 x 5 = ?

Yeah, its quite shocking to see how many people over the age of 11 got that question wrong...
They were answering it step-by-step, which should have been corrected in primary school (under 11).

Brackets
Indices
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction

BIDMAS!  :D

There is no rule that you have to do division before multiplication or vice versa. Same with addition and substraction.

Dude, you're challenging a guy who has been the top of his class for the past five years. It is BIDMAS. I don't give a crap about technicalities, as that is what I am going by. Got a problem? Go get a tissue, BIDMAS works for me and many others, so you can shove it  :D
