To simplify this expression, we first perform the division of 17 by 4, which is 4.25. Then we divide 4.25 by 9, which gives us approximately 0.4722.
Next, we substitute these values back into the expression:
0.4722 + 5/9 − 8 − 10
Now, we add the fractions: 0.4722 + (5/9) = (0.4722*9 + 5)/9 = (4.2502 + 5)/9 = 9.2502/9
Finally, we subtract 8 and 10 from the result:
9.2502/9 - 8 - 10 = 1.0278 - 18 = -16.9722
Therefore, the simplified value is approximately -16.9722.
