Question

Evaluate a) 3⁴ b) -6² c) (-4)⁴

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 81

B)-36

C)256

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

We have:

$3^4$

This is the same as:

$=3\times3\times3\times3$

This equals:

$=81$

B)

We have:

$-6^2$

This one is tricky. Note that the negative is not tied to 6. There's no parentheses. This is the same as saying:

$=(-1)(6)^2$

Thus, evaluate the square:

$=-1(36)$

Multiply:

$=-36$

C)

We have:

$(-4)^4$

This is the same as:

$=-4\times-4\times-4\times-4$

Multiply:

$=256$
