Q. Determine the value of y, if x is −8 .y=x2−2Answer:
Substitute x in equation: Substitute the value of x into the equation.We are given x=−8 and the equation y=x2−2. We need to substitute −8 for x in the equation.Calculation: y=(−8)2−2
Calculate square of −8: Calculate the square of −8. The square of −8 is 64 because (−8)×(−8)=64. Calculation: y=64−2
Subtract 2 from 64: Subtract 2 from 64 to find the value of y.Now we subtract 2 from 64 to get the value of y.Calculation: y=64−2=62
