  1. I used a calculator and got -37


  2. it is -45

  3. i got -45. i manipulated the numbers in the parenthesis first then the brackets then multiplied -3.

  4. - 3 [ - 1  + 4 ] [ 5 ]

    - 3 [ 3 ] [ 5 ]

    - 45

  5. Is it addition?:

    = - 3(- 1 - 2[- 1 - 1]) + (- 3[- 2] - 1)

    = - 3(- 1 - 2[- 2]) + (6 - 1)

    = - 3(- 1 + 4) + 5

    = - 3(3) + 5

    = - 9 + 5

    = - 4

    Or is it multiplication:

    = - 3(- 1 - 2[- 1 - 1])(- 3[- 2] - 1)

    = - 3(- 1 - 2[- 2])(6 - 1)

    = - 3(- 1 + 4)(5)

    = - 3(3)(5)

    = - 9(5)

    = - 45

    Answer: if addition then, - 4; if multiplication then, - 45

  6. -45

  7. it is -45. follow PEMDAS
