Answer 2

Hey!

Let's work through this problem together.

1st and most important step is that we use order of operations as we go left to right.

P.E.M.D.A.S: Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

First, The parenthesis, which is (2+x), or (2+2), which is 4.

So now, the equation looks like: 150-4^3.

Next, Exponents. 4^3 is 4x4x4. 4x4=16. 16x4=64.

So now the equation looks like this: 150-64.

Lastly, we subtract. 150-64=86.

So, your answer is 86.

Hope this helps!
