Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the expression at b = -2 is thus -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the expression;

$|b|+b^{3}$

and we are required to evaluate the expression for b = -2

We simply substitute b with -2 in the given expression and simplify;

$|-2|+(-2)^{3}\\\\|-2|=2\\\\(-2)^{3}=-2*-2*-2=-8\\ \\|-2|+(-2)^3=2+(-8)=2-8=-6$
