Question

If y = 8 - 5x +4x^2, what is the value of y when x=-2?

Answer 1

Answer: y=34

Step-by-step explanation:

input  -2 into the equation and solve for  y.

y= 8 - 5(-2) + 4(-2)^2

y = 8 + 10 + 4 * 4

y = 8 + 10 + 16

y= 18 + 16

y = 34

Answer 2

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

We simply plug in x = -2 into the equation so when x = -2:

y = 8 - 5 * (-2) + 4 * (-2)² = 8 + 10 + 16 = 34.
