Answer:

  -24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simplify this to ...

  b^2 +3(b -b^2) -2a

  = b^2 +3b -3b^2 -2a

  = -2b^2 +3b -2a . . . . . . . simplified form

This can be made easier for evaluation by factoring out b.

  = (-2b +3)b -2a

Using the given values, this is

  = (-2(4) +3)(4) -2(2)

  = (-5)(4) -4

  = -24 . . . . value of the expression
