Answer:

The expression is equal to 3,120 when x = -5 and y = 25.

Explanation:

In order to obtain the output of the expression when x = -5 and y = 25, we need to apply these numbers in its correct places as shown below. We need to pay close attention to
|x| which is the absolute value of "x", this means that if x is positive, then
|x| will also be positive, but if x is negative then the result will still be positive.


(5|x| - y^3)/(x)


(5*|-5| - (25)^3)/(-5)\\(5*5 - 15625)/(-5)\\(25 - 15625)/(-5)\\(-15600)/(-5) = 3,120

The expression is equal to 3,120 when x = -5 and y = 25.
