Answer: -1
Concept:
Here, we need to understand the idea of evaluation.
When encountering questions that gave you an expression with variables, then stated: "If x = a, y = b, z = c" (a, b, c are all constants), this means you should substitute the value given for each variable back to the expression.
Solve:
Given information
x = -2
y = 1
Given expression
x³ - y³ + x² + y² + 3
Substitute values into the expression
=(-2)³ - (1)³ + (-2)² + (1)² + 3
Simplify exponents
=-8 - 1 + 4 + 1 + 3
Simplify by simple operation (addition/subtraction)
=-9 + 4 + 1 + 3
=-5 + 1 + 3
=-4 + 3
