9-5%7C-7%7C%5E%283%29
To solve this problem, follow these simple steps:

The absolute value of -7 is 7, so the absolute value symbols can be removed.
9-5%287%29%5E%283%29
Cubing a number is the same as multiplying the number by itself 3 times (7*7*7). In this case, 7 cubed is 343.
9%2B%28-5%2A343%29
Multiply -5 by 343 to get -1715.
9%2B%28-1715%29
Remove the parentheses around the expression -1715.
9-1715
Subtract 1715 from 9 to get -1706.
-1706
Answer: -1706
