To evaluate the expression -5n - m for m = -3 and n = -1, we can substitute the values of m and n into the expression:
\[
-5n - m = -5(-1) - (-3)
\]
Now, let's simplify it step by step:
1. Calculate \(-5(-1)\):
\(-5 \times -1 = 5\)
2. Calculate \(-(-3)\):
This gives us \(+3\).
So, we have:
\[
-5n - m = 5 + 3
\]
Now, add the two results together:
\[
5 + 3 = 8
\]
Thus, the value of the expression for m = –3 and n = –1 is **8**.
\[
-5n - m = -5(-1) - (-3)
\]
Now, let's simplify it step by step:
