Simplify using the order of operations (PEMDAS):

[tex]\[ 5 + 10 \left( 8 + \frac{21}{3} \right) \][/tex]

Note: The provided formatting [tex]\(\left. \quad\right|^{12}\)[/tex] seems unclear or incorrect. Please verify its intended use if it was part of the original question.



Answer :

Sure, I will break down the solution using the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

1. Evaluate the expression inside the parentheses:

Inside the parentheses, we first resolve the division:
[tex]\[ 21 \div 3 = 7 \][/tex]

Then we add the result to 8:
[tex]\[ 8 + 7 = 15 \][/tex]

So, the expression inside the parentheses simplifies to 15.

2. Multiply by 10 outside the parentheses:
[tex]\[ 10 \times 15 = 150 \][/tex]

3. Addition outside the parentheses:
[tex]\[ 5 + 150 = 155 \][/tex]

4. Raise the entire result to the power of 12:
[tex]\[ 155^{12} = 1.923004843233764 \times 10^{26} \][/tex]

Therefore, the final simplified value of the given expression is
[tex]\[ 5+\left.10(8+21 \div 3) \quad\right|^{12} = 1.923004843233764 \times 10^{26} \][/tex]
