Explanation:

The order of operations is a rule that tells the correct sequence of steps for evaluating a math expression. We can remember the order using PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

Answer:

39.

Explanation:

I say good try to the first guy, but aye, it's not fully answering the question.

PEMDAS is the order you solve all of this in. Parenthesis (), Exponents (^), Multiplication (*), Division (/), Addition (+), and Subtraction (-).

We would solve (8-5) first for 3, since there is no sign between both three's, this will be multiplication.

Next is the exponent, 11^2 is 11*11, which is equal to 121.

121 - 3 * 3 * 7 - 19

Next up is Multiplication. 3 * 3 = 9, and 9 * 7 is 63.

Now our equation is 121 - 63 - 19. There is no Division or addition symbol, so we skip to Subtraction.

121 - 63 = 58, and 58 - 19 = 39.

Your Answer is 39.
