Ineed some with this math problem. i've had it explained to me two different ways. if x= -3 then what would be the answer to x^2 + 5 = ? my teacher says it is 14 but then someone else mentioned that order of operations says that the answer is -4.

The square root of x will be evaluated first before the addition of 5. Hence (-3)^2 = 9 and 9 +5 = 14, as per your teacher's answer, which is correct. The answer would not be -4.

answer: 1) twenty-seven times y

              2) twenty-seven multiplied by y

d is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation:

x= 8 because 3x = 3 * 8, and 3*8 = 24
