Answer:


  • \underline{146}

Explanation:

Plug in the value of x into the expression
6x^2-4.

- You will obtain this:
6(5)^2-4.

Then all you need to do is use the correct Order of operations to evaluate.

- For example, you need to square 5 first:
6\cdot25-4.

Then, you need to multiply:
150-4.

Then, you should subtract:
146

↣ I hope I could help!
