Sure, let's solve the expression step-by-step:

The expression we need to solve is:
[tex]\[ 23 - 4 \times 2 + 5 \][/tex]

1. First, perform the multiplication:
[tex]\[ 4 \times 2 = 8 \][/tex]

2. Substitute this back into the expression:
[tex]\[ 23 - 8 + 5 \][/tex]

3. Next, perform the subtraction:
[tex]\[ 23 - 8 = 15 \][/tex]

4. Finally, perform the addition:
[tex]\[ 15 + 5 = 20 \][/tex]

Therefore, the result of the expression [tex]\( 23 - 4 \times 2 + 5 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[ 20 \][/tex]

So, following the correct order of operations, PEMDAS/BODMAS (Parentheses/Brackets, Orders, Division and Multiplication (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)), the value of the expression is 20.
