0.96875

Practice makes perfect

To evaluate the given expression for a = -2, b = 3, and c= 4.2, we should substitute these values into the expression and simplify as much as possible.

b^3+ac/ab+2bc
3^3+( - 2)( 4.2)/-2( 3)+2( 3)( 4.2)
27+(-2)(4.2)/-2(3)+2(3)(4.2)
27+(- 8.4)/-6+25.2
27-8.4/-6+25.2
18.6/19.2
