Question

select the correct answer.

what is the value of this expression when (m = 64) and (p = 12)?

\\\sqrt3{m} - 2p\\

• 28
• 32
• -16
• -20

Explanation:

⚡ Using what you learned: Roots and Radicals

Step 1: Substitute the given values

Substitute \( m = 64 \) and \( p = 12 \) into the expression:

$$ \sqrt[3]{m} - 2p $$

$$ \sqrt[3]{64} - 2(12) $$

Step 2: Evaluate the cube root

Find the cube root of \( 64 \):

$$ \sqrt[3]{64} = 4 $$

Step 3: Multiply and subtract

Multiply \( 2 \) by \( 12 \) and subtract the result from \( 4 \):

$$ 4 - 24 = -20 $$

Answer:

-20
