Question

Evaluate the following expression when t= 2 .
t² – 44 - 4
Help please

Answer 1

-44

Explanation:

t=2, t² - 44 - 4

1. substitute in the value to the variable: 2² - 44 - 4

2. using PEMDAS, solve the equation: 2² - 44 - 4 = 4-44-4 = -40-4= -44

(evaluate the exponent, then subtract)

Answer 2

-44

Explanation:

So you want to plug 2 in for t, so the equation should now look like:

`2^(2)` - 44 - 4

No all you have to do is solve

`2^(2)` = 4

4 - 44 = -40

-40 - 4 = -44
