Sure, let's break down the expression step by step:
1. Expression:
[tex]\( 56 \div (-2) + 3 \times 7 + (-5) \)[/tex]
2. First, perform the division:
[tex]\( 56 \div (-2) = -28.0 \)[/tex]
3. Next, perform the multiplication:
[tex]\( 3 \times 7 = 21 \)[/tex]
4. Now, combine all the results together:
[tex]\(-28.0 + 21 + (-5)\)[/tex]
5. Add [tex]\(-28.0\)[/tex] and [tex]\(21\)[/tex]:
[tex]\(-28.0 + 21 = -7.0\)[/tex]
6. Finally, add [tex]\(-7.0\)[/tex] and [tex]\(-5\)[/tex]:
[tex]\(-7.0 + (-5) = -12.0\)[/tex]
So, the result of the expression [tex]\( 56 \div (-2) + 3 \times 7 + (-5) \)[/tex] is [tex]\(-12.0\)[/tex].
