Just substitute the values in the expression
(x-y)^2 = (5-(-1))^2 = (5+1)^2 = 6^2 = 36

(x-y)2 when x=5 and y= -1
=(5-(-1))2
=(5+1)2
=(6)2
=12

well, you need to substitute the given..
(x - y)2
so x = 5, y = -1....
(5 - (-1))2
(5+1)2 = 12
but if you mean by 2 in (x-y)2, is an exponent, so the answer is 6^2 = 36...

I am assuming you mean (x-y)^2
Plug in: (5--1)^2
=(5+1)^2
=(6)^2
=6 x 6
=36

(5--1)2
which turns to
(5+1)2
so 5+1=6
so (6)2 is really 6*2 so the answer is 12

if the two is multiplied, then it's 12
if the two is an exponent, then it's 36
