5 (- 1) - 4 (- 1)^{2} + 3

- 6

Solution steps

5 (- 1) - 4 (- 1)^{2} + 3

Follow the PEMDAS order of operations

Calculate exponents

(- 1)^{2} : 1

(- 1)^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 1)^{2} = 1^{2} = 1

= 1

= 5 (- 1) - 4 \cdot 1 + 3

Multiply and divide (left to right)

5 (- 1) : - 5

5 (- 1)

Apply rule

a \cdot (- b) = - a \cdot b

5 (- 1) = - 5 \cdot 1 = - 5

= - 5

= - 5 - 4 \cdot 1 + 3

Multiply and divide (left to right)

4 \cdot 1 : 4

4 \cdot 1

4 \cdot 1 = 4

= 4

= - 5 - 4 + 3

Add and subtract (left to right)

- 5 - 4 + 3 : - 6

- 5 - 4 + 3

- 5 - 4 = - 9

= - 9 + 3

- 9 + 3 = - 6

= - 6

= - 6

3 (1)^{2} + 6 (1) - 4

3 (1)^{2} + 6 (1) - 9

- 1920 + 740 (10)

- (- 22 + 16 - 19) + (17 - 7) - (8 - 28)

\frac{7}{8} - 125 - 25
