Final Answer:

the correct answer to the expression given the value of x is 190.

Explanation:

To find the value of the expression 238−3x² when x equals 4, follow these steps:

1. Plug the value of x into the expression:

\( 238 - 3(4)^2 \)

2. Calculate the square of 4:

\( 4^2 = 16 \)

3. Multiply the result by 3:

\( 3 \times 16 = 48 \)

4. Subtract that value from 238:

\( 238 - 48 = 190 \)

We see that 190 is not in the list of options, so it's possible that there was a mistake in the question or the provided choices. But if we go strictly by the calculation, the correct answer to the expression given the value of x is 190.
