it's an exponent question:
The cube of the sum of 5 and 2 is decreased by the square of the product of 6 and 4. Write an expression that models this statement. Then solve.
I can solve it myself but I don't get the question. Please explain it to me.

its - 5+2^3-6 times 4 ^2
explanation- it says the SUM of 5 and 2 so 5+2. you also have to cube it. so 5+2^3. then it says decreased which means subtracted. so 5+2^3-. then it says the product which means multiplied. so 5+2^3-6*4. then it says to sqaure it. 5+2^3-6*4^2. hope i helped!

It appears to be saying (5+2)^3-(6x4)^2, but I'm not entirely certain that they mean "subtract" when they say "decreased." The other operations are definitely correct though.
"Cube of the sum" means to take the addition and then raise to the 3rd power. "Square of product" similarly means to take the multiplication and then raise to the 2nd power.

(5+2)^3 - (6x4)^2 = 7^3-24^2=343-576= -233
