The expression can be simplified as:

10 + 3|1 - 7|

First, we calculate the value inside the second pair of absolute value symbols:

1 - 7 = -6

Then, we take the absolute value of -6, which is 6.

Now we can substitute the simplified value back into the expression:

10 + 3 * 6

Multiplying:

10 + 18

Adding:

28

Therefore, the value of the expression is 28.

To find the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5, we first simplify the subtraction within the parenthesis:

1 - 1.5 = -0.5

Now we can multiply the two fractions:

(21/14) * (-0.5)

To simplify the expression, we can cancel out any common factors between the numerator of one fraction and the denominator of the other fraction:

(21/7) * (-1/2)

Now multiply the numerators and denominators together:

(21 * -1) / (7 * 2) = -21/14

Therefore, the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5 is -21/14.

Apologies for the confusion. Here's the correct calculation:

To find the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5, we first simplify the subtraction within the parenthesis:

1 - 1.5 = -0.5

Now we can multiply the fraction and the decimal:

(21/14) * (-0.5)

To simplify the expression, we can cancel out any common factors between the numerator of the fraction and the denominator of the fraction:

(21/7) * (-1/2)

Now multiply the numerators and denominators together:

(21 * -1) / (7 * 2) = -21/14

Now we can simplify the fraction:

-21/14 = -3/2

Converting this fraction to a decimal:

-3/2 = -1.5

Thus, the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5 is -1.5, which matches one of the answer choices provided.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's recalculate:

To find the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5:

First, simplify the subtraction within the parenthesis:

1 - 1.5 = -0.5

Now we can multiply the fraction and the decimal:

(21/14) * (-0.5)

To simplify the expression, we can cancel out any common factors between the numerator of the fraction and the denominator of the fraction:

(21/7) * (-1/2)

Now multiply the numerators and denominators together:

(21 * -1) / (7 * 2) = -21/14

Now we can simplify the fraction:

-21/14 can be simplified to -3/2

Converting this fraction to a decimal:

-3/2 = -1.5

Thus, the product of 21/14 and 1 - 1.5 is also -1.5, as I previously mentioned.
