Answer:

-4.

Explanation:

Order of operations has the acronym PEMDAS:

ParenthesesExponentMultiplyDivideAddSubtract.

-3[8+3(-4+3)]+11​

First we calculate the expressions in the parentheses ( inner parentheses first):

= -3[8 + 3*-1] + 11 Now the outer parentheses ( note multiply 3*-1 first):

= -3[ 8 - 3} + 11

= -3 * 5 + 11 Multiply next:

= -15 + 11

= -4.
