Answer:
B. 14
Step-by-step explanation:
okay we are going to place 3 where the x variable is and -2 where the y variable is in the equation 2 x2 - y
2 (3*2) - (-2)
the equation now looks like this:
2(6) - (-2)
Since the subtraction sign is in front of the negative number the negative number will turn positive making the equation look like this:
2(6) + 2
we are now going to do the order of operations by multiplying 6 by 2 before adding 2:
6 * 2 = 12 + 2 = 14
So the equation 2 x2 - y = 14
