You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \({\left( -2 \right)}^{3} - 3 \cdot -2 - 3\)
MathBot Answer:
\[{\left( -2 \right)}^{3} - 3 \cdot -2 - 3 = -5\]
\[\begin{aligned}{\left( -2 \right)}^{3} - 3 \cdot -2 - 3& = \left(-2\right)^{3} - 3 \cdot -2 - 3\\& = -8 - 3 \cdot -2 - 3\\& = -8 - -6 - 3\\& = -8 + 6 - 3\\& = -2 - 3\\& = -5\end{aligned}\]
