Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Substitute x=1x=1 and y=2y=2 into the expression.

    −2(1)+5(1)(2)+12(1)+9(2)-2(1) + 5(1)(2) + 12(1) + 9(2)
  2. Perform the multiplications.

    −2+10+12+18-2 + 10 + 12 + 18
  3. Add the terms together.

    (−2+10)+12+18=8+12+18(-2 + 10) + 12 + 18 = 8 + 12 + 18 8+12+18=20+188 + 12 + 18 = 20 + 18 20+18=3820 + 18 = 38

    The value of the expression is:
