the second part to this is asking for Concatenation so using the "+". that means it would look something like this:

let name = "bebas"

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"

let finalGreeting = "\(greeting) + How are you?"

You just need to add more quotes or it'll think the + sign is part of your string rather than a concatenation:

let name = "bebas"

let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"

let finalGreeting = "\(greeting) " + "How are you?" //notice the + sign isn't in quotes.
