To solve the expression \( 4 + 3 (5^2) - 1 \), follow these steps:
1. Calculate \( 5^2 \):
\[
5^2 = 25
\]
2. Multiply by 3:
\[
3 \times 25 = 75
\]
3. Now substitute back into the expression:
\[
4 + 75 - 1
\]
4. Perform the addition and subtraction:
- First, add \( 4 + 75 = 79 \)
- Then subtract \( 1 \):
\[
79 - 1 = 78
\]
So, the final answer is:
\[
\boxed{78}
\]
