Answer:

15-7×2+2³​=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:


15-7*2+2^3

To simplify, use the order of operation: PEMDAS.

In the expression, the first we have is the exponent(E):


=15-7*2+8

Next, evaluate the multiplication sign(M):


=15-14+8

Finally, simplify:


\begin{gathered} =1+8 \\ =9 \end{gathered}

The value of the expression is 9.
