Answer:it’s a variable

Explanation:

if x or y is a number say if x is 5 and y is 7 . Example: x=7 y=6

56x + 18xy

First you multiply 56 by 7 and u get 392 and now you multiply 7 by 6 and u get 42 so now multiply 18 by 42 and u get 756 so now the equation is

392 + 756

And the answer will be 1148 ;) .
