Answer 2

Answer:

$\textbf{-16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4^2-\left(2\times \:2^4\right)$

We will use the PEMDAS order of operations:

• Parentheses: ( )
• Exponents: a²
• Multiplication: ×
• Division: ÷
• Addition: +
• Subtraction: -

1) Calculate within Parentheses:

• ➳ $(2\times 2^{4} )$

• ➳ $2^{4} =16$

• ➳ $2\times 16$

• ➳ $=32$

$4^2-32$

2) Calculate exponents:

• ➳ $4^{2} =16$

• ➳ $6-32$

3) Subtraction:

• ➳ $16-32$

• ➳ $-16$
