You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \({\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{4} + 5 \cdot \frac{1}{2} - 3\)

MathBot Answer:

\[{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{4} + 5 \cdot \frac{1}{2} - 3 = - \frac{7}{16} = -0.4375\]

\[\begin{aligned}{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{4} + 5 \cdot \frac{1}{2} - 3& = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{4} + \frac{5}{2} - 3\\& = \frac{1}{16} + \frac{5}{2} - 3\\& = \frac{41}{16} - 3\\& = - \frac{7}{16}\end{aligned}\]
