Question: Modify the following arithmetic print x 6 4 . asm file to do the following formula: Y = A ^ 2 + B ^ 3

Modify the following arithmetic print x64.asm file to do the following formula: Y = A^2+ B^3 C Create and use additional pre-defined variables in the .data section to populate the A, B, and C values. Remember variables may need to be deferenced via [](e.g. for a variable named numX, [?,?] will add its value) Hint: You may need more registers to do this. Modify the Result is: string to include the formula. e.g.Result of A^2+ B^3 C is:
This is the code
; 64-bit NASM code using direct syscalls instead of external functions
; This version properly preserves the multiplication result
section .data
msg db 'Result is: '
msgLen equ $ - msg
newline db 0xA
section .bss
numStr resb 20 ; Reserve 20 bytes for number string
section .text
global _start
_start:
; Perform multiplication and save result
mov rax, 9 ; Load 9 into rax
imul rax, 7 ; Multiply rax by 7(should be 63)
push rax ; Save multiplication result
; First print "Result is: " message
mov rdi, 1 ; File descriptor: STDOUT
mov rsi, msg ; Message to print
mov rdx, msgLen ; Message length
mov rax, 1 ; Syscall: sys_write

mov rcx,0 ; Initialize counter
mov rbx,10 ; Divisor for base-10

mov byte [r9],'0'

jmp .print_number
.convert_loop:
test r8, r8 ; Check if number is 0
