Answer:
I think the author is meaning to tell you to use your imagination to think about what will happen when you enter. You don’t know until you through it.
Step-by-step explanation:
the assumption being that "x" is a plain variable whilst "y" is a function, that matters because the chain rule would be needed for a function, not so for a plain variable.

now, we know that y(5) = -23, which is another way of saying that when x = 5, y = -23, but we already knew that, we can get that by simply plugging it into the equation hmmm y'(5), well

Put -4 in place of x
-4 to the second power is 16 so it would be 16-(-12)= 28
-4/3x (or -1 1/3x if you use whole numbers instead of an improper fraction) -7 = 1
40960000 is the answer to the equation
