Iliana cubed the number of flowering plants in her garden, then added 2 vegetable plants. Let p represent the original number of plants in her garden. Which shows an expression to represent the total number of plants in her garden and the total number of plants if p = 3?

A3p - 2 when p = 3 the number of plants is 7
B3p + 2 when p = 3 the number of plants is 11
Cp^3 - 2 when p = 3 the number of plants is 25
Dp^3 + 2when p = 3 the number of plants is 29

when she cubed the number of flowering plants that means p^3 so the answer is not A or B 
now take a look at C or D 
both are p^3 + 2 which is right now lets solve it:
3^3 + 2 = 27 +2 = 29 
so the answer is D :)))
i hope  this is helpful
have a nice day

The answer is D because cubed is to the 3rd power (p^3) okay so with that the next part of the question reads "adds 2 vegetable plants" so knowing this your equation will be p^3+2. Next you substitute 3 for p therefor giving you the problem 
3^3+2=?
27+2=29
