2*3^2 is 18 - distribute
18*8=144 - twice
18*3=54 - add
=198 - answer
take the x and y values and substuite them in the equation, remember your order of operations

If I've interpreted your question correctly, you just replace y's with 3 and x's with 8 and solve. so:
2*3^2 *(3+8)= ?
Remember the order of operations
Please excuse my dear aunt sally
or
parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction
so do the parenthesis first and you have
2(3^2)*(11)=?
then exponents,
2*9*11=?
now you just have multiplication
2*9*11 =198
Using the mnemonic device will help you to evaluate the expression.
hope that helps

use EPMDAS
first square 3. 3^2=9.
multipy that by 2. (2x9=18)
add x and y together. (8+3=11)
you get 18(11) or 18 x11
combine. You should get 198
