Evaluate 8.5910.6×1.428.591-0.6 \times 1.4^{2}.

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are given the expression 8.5910.6×1.428.591 - 0.6 \times 1.4^{2}.
2. We need to follow the order of operations, also known as BIDMAS/BODMAS (Brackets, Indices/Orders, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction).

STEP 2

First, we need to deal with the exponentiation part of the expression, which is 1.421.4^{2}.
1.42=1.4×1.41.4^{2} = 1.4 \times 1.4

STEP 3

Now, calculate the value of 1.421.4^{2}.
1.42=1.4×1.4=1.961.4^{2} = 1.4 \times 1.4 = 1.96

STEP 4

Next, we need to multiply the result of the exponentiation by 0.60.6.
0.6×1.42=0.6×1.960.6 \times 1.4^{2} = 0.6 \times 1.96

STEP 5

Calculate the product of 0.60.6 and 1.961.96.
0.6×1.96=1.1760.6 \times 1.96 = 1.176

STEP 6

Now, subtract the result from 8.5918.591.
8.5910.6×1.42=8.5911.1768.591 - 0.6 \times 1.4^{2} = 8.591 - 1.176

STEP 7

Finally, perform the subtraction to evaluate the expression.
8.5911.176=7.4158.591 - 1.176 = 7.415
The value of the expression is 7.4157.415.
