3 ⋅ |-5| + |3| - |2|
First, we simplify the absolute values:
|-5| = 5 (since the absolute value of -5 is 5)
|3| = 3 (since the absolute value of 3 is 3)
|2| = 2 (since the absolute value of 2 is 2)
Substituting these values back into the original expression:
3 ⋅ 5 + 3 - 2
Next, we perform the multiplication and addition:
= 15 + 3 - 2
= 18 - 2
= 16
Therefore, 3 ⋅ |-5| + |3| - |2| = 16.
Solve. 3 ⋅ |-5| + |3| - |2|
