Answer: 38
Step-by-step explanation: to evaluate an expression for these variables, plug in those numbers for the variables.
Plugging in -1 for y and -19 for z gets you this:
-2(-1)^2(-19)
Now simplify according to order of operations (PEMDAS - parenthesis exponents multiplication/division addition/subtraction)
-1^2 = 1
-2(1) = -2
-2(-19) = 38
Your answer is 38
