Value of the expression =

SUBSTITUTE the value of "x" instead of x and the value of "y" instead of y.


\sf 4(-1)^3(2)^2}

NOW we can use P.E.M.D.A.S. to simplify this expression.

Remember, this acronym stands for.

P=Parentheses,

E=Exponents,

M=Multiplication,

D=Division,

A=Addition,

S=Subtraction,

and now we can use it to simplify.

We have the exponents first.


\sf 4\cdot(-1)\cdot4}.

NOW we multiply.


\sf -16}

Let's evaluate ~


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 4 {x}^(3) {y}^(2)

now, plug in the values :


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 4( -1 ) {}^(3)( {2)}^(2)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 4( - 1)(4)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - 4(4)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - 16

So, the equivalent value is 16
