Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf 54}

Explanation:

→ We want the value of this expression when n = 3:


\sf -2n(5 + n - 8 - 3n)

→ Let's replace n by 3:


\sf (-2* 3) *(5 + 3 - 8 - 3 * 3 )

→ Let's simplify the expression:


\sf (-6) * (5 + 3 - 8 - 9 )


\sf (-6) *(-9 )


\sf 6 *9


\boxed{\sf 54}

Conclusion:

When n = 3, the expression -2n(5 + n - 8 - 3n) is equal to 54.
