2×2 + 10 + 200 + 56 The order of operations requires the multiplication be done first. = 4 + 10 + 200 + 56 The addition is done left to right. = 14 + 200 + 56 = 214 + 56 = 270
start with multiplying z to each. you don't multiply it to the 6 because it is in the same parenthesis set, but you multiply it to everything in the other set. After multiplying, you get: , ,
now do that to the 6. After multiplying you get: , ,
now set it all next to each other + + + + +
now combine like terms. start with the to the highest power. since there is only one that has a third power, you put that one first. then you combine the squared ones, and so forth.
