Question

$$5-2(-1-3(-8+5))-(-8+1)$$

Evaluate

$-4$

Solution Steps

Add $-8$ and $5$ to get $-3$.

$$5-2\left(-1-3\left(-3\right)\right)-\left(-8+1\right)$$

Multiply $3$ and $-3$ to get $-9$.

$$5-2\left(-1-\left(-9\right)\right)-\left(-8+1\right)$$

The opposite of $-9$ is $9$.

$$5-2\left(-1+9\right)-\left(-8+1\right)$$

Add $-1$ and $9$ to get $8$.

$$5-2\times 8-\left(-8+1\right)$$

Multiply $2$ and $8$ to get $16$.

$$5-16-\left(-8+1\right)$$

Subtract $16$ from $5$ to get $-11$.

$$-11-\left(-8+1\right)$$

Add $-8$ and $1$ to get $-7$.

$$-11-\left(-7\right)$$

The opposite of $-7$ is $7$.

$$-11+7$$

Add $-11$ and $7$ to get $-4$.

$$-4$$

Factor

$-4$
