Answer:
(There's a confusion here, is x 2 x times 2? The answer and explanation are based on x multiply by 2)
y = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitution Method-
y = x 2 - 4
x = -2
y = (-2) 2 - 4
PEMDAS - parentheses; exponents; Multiplication & Division; Addition & Subtraction
we are going to multipl -2 and 2 together ---> -4
y = -4 - 4
Same sign add, different sign subtract.
Same sign keep the sign, different sign keep the larger.
y = -8
