Answer 1

\[(k^2)^4\]

Answer 2

?

Answer 5

now, become my fan =D

Answer 6

i yhought if there was an exponent outside perentheses. you made (in this case 4) of whats inside them?

Answer 7

Answer 10

they are bothe totally different answerss. wich is right

Answer 11

ok, let me show you

Answer 12

for example, lets say k is 2, so

\[(2^{2})^{4}\]
= \[(2^{2})*(2^{2})*(2^{2})*(2^{2})\]
=4*4*4*4
=256

Answer 13

now, to see if my way gives the same answer, lets see:

Answer 14

\[(2^{2})^{4} = 2^{2*4} = 2^{8}\]
= 2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2
=256

so both mothods are exactly the same
just that mine is easyer

Answer 15
