Answer 2

Answer:

x² + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given statement:

• "number squared, added to 5"

We know the following:

    1. "number squared" ⇒ A number multiplied to the same number.

    Let the number be known as "x". Then;

        $\implies x \times x$

        $\implies \underline{x^{2}}$

   2. "added to 5" ⇒ Addition between number, squared and 5.

   Let the number be known as "x". Then;

        $\implies (x)^{2} + 5$  $(\text{number, squared} \implies x^{2} )$

        $\implies \boxed{x^{2} + 5}$

Therefore, the expression that represents the statement is x² + 5.
