Given the following expression:


2y(x-4​)

And knowing that the value of "x" is:


x=6

And the value of "y" is:


y=9

You can substitute those values into the expression, as following:


2y(x-4)​=2(9)(6-4​)

In order to evaluate it, you need to folow these steps:

- Solve the subraction inside the parentheses.


=2(9)(2)

- Finally, find the product solving the multiplication (remember that the Product is the result of a multiplication).

Then, you get that the answer is:


=36
