Answer:

m+7m+1 = -23

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the given equation we will follow the PEDMAS rule.

PEDMAS stands for :


  • \purple\star P = Parentheses

  • \purple\star E = Exponents

  • \purple\star M = Multiplication

  • \purple\star D = Division

  • \purple\star A = Addition

  • \purple\star S = Subtraction
  • To solve the given equation we will follow the PEDMAS rule.

Substituting the value of m = 3 to evaluate the expression :


\begin{gathered} \qquad{\twoheadrightarrow{\sf{m + 7m + 1}}}\\\\\qquad{\twoheadrightarrow{\sf{( - 3) + (7 * - 3) + 1}}}\\\\\qquad{\twoheadrightarrow{\sf{ - 3 - 21+ 1}}}\\\\\qquad{\twoheadrightarrow{\sf{ - 24+ 1}}}\\\\\qquad{\twoheadrightarrow{\sf{ - 23}}} \\\\\qquad{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\red{ - 23}}}}}}\end{gathered}

Hence, the answer is -23.

__________________________________________________________
In this question, you are solving the expression by plugging in the value "-3" to all of the "m" variables in the expression.

__________________________________________________________

Solve:

Expression: m + 7m + 1

Plug "-3" into the "m" variables and solve.

-3 + 7(-3) + 1
-3 - 21 + 1

-24 + 1

-23

Your final answer should be: -23
