Evaluate the expression for g = –3 and h = –7.

Question

h^2 + g − 13 =

Answer 1

To evaluate the expression $h^2+g-13$ with $g=-3$ and $h=-7$, we can follow these steps:

1. Calculate $h^2$: $$h^2=(-7{)}^2=49$$

2. Now substitute $h^2$ and $g$ into the expression: $$h^2+g-13=49+(-3)-13$$

3. Simplify the expression: $$49-3-13=46-13=33$$

Thus, the final result is: $$\boxed{{\displaystyle 33}}$$
