Question 16666
First, you did correctly indicate exponents by using the caret (^), but what you have here is an expression, not an equation.
Second, it would appear, although you don't say so, that you have to evaluate this expression for x = -3.
If this is correct, we'll proceed.

Evaluate the expression: 
{{{(x^2 + 4x + 5)(x^2 + x - 2)}}} for x = -3 Substitute -3 for every x in the expresion and perform the indicated operations.

{{{((-3)^2 + 4(-3) + 5)((-3)^2 +(-3) - 2)}}}
{{{(9-12+5)(9-3-2)}}} = {{{(2)(4)}}} = 8
With your answer of 224, I just can't imagine what you must have done!
