Evaluate: \( 7 * 4+2 * 6^{2} \)

Let's break it down step by step: First, evaluate the exponent \( 6^{2} = 36 \). Now, substitute that back into the expression: \[ 7 * 4 + 2 * 36 \] Next, calculate \( 7 * 4 = 28 \). Then calculate \( 2 * 36 = 72 \). Now, substitute those values back into the expression: \[ 28 + 72 \] Add these two results together: \[ 28 + 72 = 100 \] So, the value of \( 7 * 4 + 2 * 6^{2} \) is \( 100 \).
