Evaluate the expression 25 - |11| + (-7)

Solution

The expression provided in the image is:

2511+(7)25 - |11| + (-7)

Let's evaluate this step by step:

  1. Evaluate the absolute value: 11=11|11| = 11

  2. Substitute this into the expression: 2511+(7)25 - 11 + (-7)

  3. Perform the subtraction and addition: 2511=1425 - 11 = 14 14+(7)=714 + (-7) = 7
