Second Term

Now fill in the blanks so that the second term is evaluated and added to the accumulator.

Note: With actual hardware the result of a mult operation should not be used until two more instuctions have executed. This feature is not simulated by SPIM, so the program assumes that HI and LO contain the correct results immediately after a mult operation.

## evaluate  5x^2 -12x + 97

## Register Use:
##
## $10 base register, address of x
## $11 x
## $12 value of the polynomial
## $13 temporary
