If (x=-3) and (y=2), what is the value of (x^2y+xy^2)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 6

Substituting the given values, \(x^2y=(-3)^2\times2=9\times2=18\) and \(xy^2=(-3)\times2^2=(-3)\times4=-12\). Hence, \(x^2y+xy^2=18+(-12)=6\). The distractor \(-6\) may result from handling the sign of the negative term incorrectly. Exam tip: write a negative number in brackets before squaring it; \((-3)^2=9\).
