Math Problem Statement

2-5(-3(3-5)-2(2-3))

Solution

Let's simplify the expression step by step.

Given:

25(3(35)2(23))2 - 5 \left(-3 \left(3 - 5\right) - 2 \left(2 - 3\right)\right)

Step 1: Simplify the innermost parentheses.

  • Inside the first parentheses: 35=23 - 5 = -2
  • Inside the second parentheses: 23=12 - 3 = -1

Now, substitute these values back:

25(3(2)2(1))2 - 5 \left(-3 \left(-2\right) - 2 \left(-1\right)\right)

Step 2: Multiply inside the parentheses.

  • Multiply 3×2=6-3 \times -2 = 6
  • Multiply 2×1=2-2 \times -1 = 2

Substitute these values back:

25(6+2)2 - 5 \left(6 + 2\right)

Step 3: Add the values inside the parentheses.

  • 6+2=86 + 2 = 8

Now the expression is:

25×82 - 5 \times 8

Step 4: Perform the multiplication.

  • 5×8=405 \times 8 = 40

So the expression is now:

2402 - 40

Step 5: Perform the subtraction.

240=382 - 40 = -38

So, the final simplified value of the expression is:

38\boxed{-38}

  5. Solve 85(3(46)2)8 - 5 \left(-3 \left(4 - 6\right) - 2\right).

Tip: Always perform operations inside the parentheses first, following the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction).
