Question

Lilian cubed the number of flowering plants in her garden, then added 2 vegetable plants. Let p represent the original number of plants in her garden. Which shows an expression to represent the total number of plants in her garden and the total number of plants if p=3?

Answer 1

Explanation: Lilian planted "p" plants and cubed them (³) so it would be p³. Then, she added two more plants so it would now be p³+2. Then, you have to solve it. If p=3 then the expression would become 3³+2. 3³ is basically 3×3×3 which is 27. 27+2 would be 29.

Answer: D : p³ + 2 when p=3 the number of plants is 29

Answer 2
