Answer 1

Answer: $\Large\boxed{14}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression

$x^2-2(x-y)$

Given information

$x=-2$

$y=3$

Substitute values into the expression

$=(-2)^2-2((-2)-(3))$

Simplify the values in the parenthesis

$=(-2)^2-2(-2-3)$

$=(-2)^2-2(-5)$

Simplify the exponents

$=4-2(-5)$

Simplify by multiplication

$=4-(-10)$

$=4+10$

Simplify by addition

$=\Large\boxed{14}$
