To evaluate the expression \( m^2 + 4m - 1 \) when \( m = -7 \), substitute \(-7\) for \( m \) in the expression and compute the result.
To evaluate the expression \( m^2 + 4m - 1 \) for \( m = -7 \), substitute \(-7\) for \( m \).
Substitute the calculated values back into the expression: \[ 49 + (-28) - 1 = 49 - 28 - 1 \]
Simplify the expression: \[ 49 - 28 - 1 = 20 \]
The value of the expression when \( m = -7 \) is \(\boxed{20}\).
