''Decreased'' means subtract and ''times'' means multiplication so the algebraic expression should be 15 - 2 * p.
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
the question is just asking you to replace the x and y with the corresponding numbers.
x = 4
y = -3
Since x is 4 squared it would be 16.
-4 times -3 equals positive 12.
That would make the equation
(16 + 12) divided by 2
16 + 12 = 28 divide that by 2 and you’ll get 14.
