Evaluate the following expression where [tex]\( a=5, b=3, c=7, d=5 \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ [c + 7(d - 3)]^2 \div 3 \][/tex]



Answer :

Sure, let's go through the expression step-by-step:
[tex]\[ [c+7(d-3)]^2 \div 3 \][/tex]

Given the values:
[tex]\[ a = 5,\ b = 3,\ c = 7,\ d = 5 \][/tex]

1. Evaluate the inner part [tex]\(d - 3\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ d - 3 = 5 - 3 = 2 \][/tex]

2. Multiply the result by 7:
[tex]\[ 7(d - 3) = 7 \times 2 = 14 \][/tex]

3. Add the value of [tex]\(c\)[/tex] to the previous result:
[tex]\[ c + 7(d - 3) = 7 + 14 = 21 \][/tex]

4. Square the entire expression:
[tex]\[ [c + 7(d - 3)]^2 = 21^2 = 441 \][/tex]

5. Divide the result by 3:
[tex]\[ \frac{[c + 7(d - 3)]^2}{3} = \frac{441}{3} = 147.0 \][/tex]

So, the detailed step-by-step evaluation of the expression [tex]\([c + 7(d - 3)]^2 \div 3\)[/tex] leads to the final result of:
[tex]\[ \boxed{147.0} \][/tex]
