Question

if p = -2 , find the value of p square - 2p - 100

Answer 1

Question :

If p = (-2) , Find the value of p^2 - 2p - 100

Answer : -92

Step by step explanation :


Here,

We just have to put the value of p in the given equation and we'll get the answer.

$\tt{( - 2) {}^{2} - 2 \times - 2 - 100}$

Simplifying it further, we get :

$\tt{ = 4 +4 - 100}$

Few steps more..

$\tt{ = 8 - 100}$

Finally, adding this,

$\tt{ = -92}$

Hence,

We got the Value as -92.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge{Answer}}$

$\sf{We're \:Given\:That:}$

p (p) = $\tt{p^{2} - 2p - 100}$

p = (-2)

$\sf{The\:Method\:for\:solving\:the\:question\:will\:be:}$

In these types of questions, we just need to put the given value of (p) in the equation given to us. Doing the same in this question, what we'll get is :-

=》 $\tt{(-2)^{2} - 2 (-2) - 100}$

Solve this formed equation further

=》 $\tt{4 + 4 - 100}$

Some more steps to go

=》 $\tt{(-92)}$

Thus, if the value of p = (-2), the value of the equation p (p) = $\tt{p^{2} - 2p - 100}$ will be = (-92).
