Q. Determine the value of y, if x is −4 .y=x2−5Answer:
Substitute x in equation: Substitute the value of x into the equation.We are given x=−4 and the equation y=x2−5. We need to substitute −4 for x in the equation.Calculation: y=(−4)2−5
Calculate square of −4: Calculate the square of −4. The square of −4 is 16 because (−4)×(−4)=16. Calculation: y=16−5
Subtract to find y: Subtract 5 from 16 to find the value of y. We need to perform the subtraction to find the value of y. Calculation: y=16−5=11
