Evaluate each expression for the given values of the variables.

1. 5m+ 6n^2 - n^3 ; m = 2 and n = 4
2. (3x)^2 - (x^3 - y^2); x= -3 and y= -5

1 answer

Let's evaluate each expression step by step.

1. Evaluate \( 5m+ 6n^2 - n^3 \) for \( m = 2 \) and \( n = 4 \)

Substituting the values of \( m \) and \( n \):

\[ 5m + 6n^2 - n^3 = 5(2) + 6(4^2) - (4^3) \]

Calculating each term:

  • \( 5(2) = 10 \)
  • \( 6(4^2) = 6 \times 16 = 96 \)
  • \( 4^3 = 64 \)

Now substituting these values back into the expression:

\[ = 10 + 96 - 64 \] \[ = 10 + 96 = 106 \] \[ = 106 - 64 = 42 \]

So, the evaluated expression is:

\[ \textbf{42} \]

2. Evaluate \( (3x)^2 - (x^3 - y^2) \) for \( x = -3 \) and \( y = -5 \)

Substituting the values of \( x \) and \( y \):

\[ (3x)^2 - (x^3 - y^2) = (3(-3))^2 - ((-3)^3 - (-5)^2) \]

Calculating each part:

  • \( 3(-3) = -9 \)
  • \( (-9)^2 = 81 \)
  • \( (-3)^3 = -27 \)
  • \( (-5)^2 = 25 \)

Now substituting these values back into the expression:

\[ = 81 - (-27 - 25) \] \[ = 81 - (-27 - 25) = 81 - (-52) \] \[ = 81 + 52 = 133 \]

So, the evaluated expression is:

\[ \textbf{133} \]

Summary of Results

  1. The result of \( 5m + 6n^2 - n^3 \) is 42.
  2. The result of \( (3x)^2 - (x^3 - y^2) \) is 133.
