First, solve the expression inside the absolute value: 3² - 1 = 3112 Then, substitute into the original expression: 3 - 7 · |13 - 3112| Next, solve the expression inside the absolute value: 13 - 3112 = -3099 (Note: the absolute value of a negative number is its positive equivalent) Substitute back into the expression: 3 - 7 · |-3099| = 3 - 7 · 3099 = 3 - 21693 = -21690 Therefore, the correct answer is (B) -32.
