Could someone me with these two?

1. simplify the expression 4^3 + 2(3 − 2).

a. 14
b. 16
c. 66
d. 68

Hello there!

4³ + 2(3 - 2)

= 64 + 2(1)

= 64 + 2

= 66

The correct answer is option C

The second part*

A variable cubed >>>>> x³

Quotient of some number and three >>> b ÷ 3

Product of an unknown value and three >>>>> 3a

Three less than a variable >>>y - 3

Three more than some number >>>> z + 3

If you have any misunderstanding, please let me know. As always, I am here to help!

1) its C. 66
2) A. product of an unknown value and three
B. three less than a variable
C. a variable cubed
D. three more than some number 
E. Quotient of some number and three

Ithink the answer is b

Aquadratic function is one of the form f(x)=ax2 + bx + c l, where a,b, and c are numbers with are not equal to zero.
