Answer:

75

Explanation:

You want the value of y² +4y -2 when y=7.

Substitution

Put the value where the variable is and do the arithmetic.

7² +4·7 -2

= 49 +28 -2

= 77 -2

= 75

The value of the expression is 75.

Additional comment

It is often easier to evaluate a polynomial when it is written in Horner form:

(y +4)·y -2

= (7 +4)·7 -2 = 11·7 -2 = 77 -2 = 75
