Final: A Cubic Expression

Part of the Expressions & Data section of Coddy's Pre-Algebra journey. Lesson 48 of 51.

This problem gives an expression with a cube in it and a negative value for x. Put the value in place of every x, inside brackets so its sign stays attached, then follow the order of operations down to one number.

Challenge

Evaluate $2{x}^{3}+5x$ when x is -3. Call the value v: write v equal to the expression with -3 in place of x, then work it down to one number.
