By plugging in our x value, we are able to use PEMDAS to multiply 2 and the value of x and then, we subtract 1 from the value we got from step 3 to get -15.
step 2:add a 0 in the end and multiply 8 with 4 . you get 32. take 2 and carry over 3. multiply 7 with 4. you get 28 . add 3 you get 31. now add. you get 3120
