8 - 4 x 3 x -2² like this

next is to change -2² = -4 becasue 2² = 4 and since theres a minus its negative 4

step 3. 4 x 3 = 12

so 8 - (12 x -4= 48)

then 48 - 8 which eqausl to 56 and is ur first option

Answer 2

-40

Explanation:

`8 - 4x {y}^(2)`

Given:

x = 3

y = -2

Replace the letters with the given numbers in this expression:

`8 - 4 * 3 * ( { - 2})^(2)`

`8 - 4 * 3 * 4`

`8 - 48 = - 40`

So, the correct answer is -40
