Answer: 44
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a confusing problem to look at, so use PEMDAS(parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).
5 * (-4) + (1 - (-3)^2)^2 simplify inside the parenthesis
5 * (-4) + (1 - 9)^2
5 * (-4) + (-8)^2 simplify exponents
5 * (-4) + 64 multiply
-20 + 64 finally, addition
44
