Explanation:

[STC0014471]. In order to solve this problem, start by substituting the value 8 for each of the y variables, which will give you the equation 8(3 – (8 x 8) + 7 – (15 x 8) as a solution. After you have completed step one, proceed to step two by doing the multiplication within the smaller sets of parentheses to arrive at the answer 8(3 – 64 + 7 – 120). After adding up all of the figures contained between the wider parenthesis, you are left with 8 times 174, which equals -1,392 in total.
