Question 60803: Hi, I am taking an online algebra class as part of my pre-nursing courses. I have been struggling with this equation for 2 days. I see other students responses and most of them are coming up with the answer of "79". I cannot figure out how they are coming to that conclusion, help! Thanks! :)
1 � a^(2) � (-b)^(3) + C^(4)
(a=-2, b=1, c=3)
