Powers - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

To solve this problem, we'll focus on expressing the power $2^7$ as a series of multiplications.

• Step 1: Identify the given power expression $2^7$.
• Step 2: Convert $2^7$ into a product of repeated multiplication. This involves writing 2 multiplied by itself for a total of 7 times.
• Step 3: The expanded form of $2^7$ is $2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2$.

By comparing this expanded form with the provided choices, we see that the correct expression is:

$2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2$

Therefore, the solution to the problem is the expression that matches this expanded multiplication form, which is the choice $\text{1: } 2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2$.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Recognize that $6^2$ means $6 \times 6$.
• Step 2: Perform the multiplication of 6 by itself.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: The expression $6^2$ indicates we need to multiply 6 by itself.
Step 2: Calculating $6 \times 6$ gives us 36.

Therefore, the value of $6^2$ is 36.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Set up the multiplication as $11 \times 11$.
• Step 2: Compute the product using basic arithmetic.
• Step 3: Compare the result with the provided multiple-choice answers to identify the correct one.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: We begin with the calculation $11 \times 11$.
Step 2: Perform the multiplication:

1. Multiply the units digits: $1 \times 1 = 1$.
2. Next, for the tens digits: $11 \times 10 = 110$.
3. Add the results: $110 + 1 = 111$. This doesn't seem right, so let's break it down further.

Let's examine a more structured multiplication method:

Multiply $11$ by $1$ (last digit of the second 11), we get 11.
Multiply $11$ by $10$ (tens place of the second 11), we get 110.

If we align correctly and add the partial products:

     11
+   110
------------
   121

Step 3: The correct multiplication yields the final result as $121$. Upon reviewing the provided choices, the correct answer is choice 4: $121$.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $121$.

To solve this problem, we will apply the rule of exponents:

• Any number raised to the power of 1 remains unchanged. Therefore, by the identity property of exponents, $10,000^1 = 10,000$.

Given the choices:

• $10,000 \cdot 10,000$: This is $10,000^2$.
• $10,000 \cdot 1$: Simplifying this expression yields 10,000, which is equivalent to $10,000^1$.
• $10,000 + 10,000$: This results in 20,000, not equivalent to $10,000^1$.
• $10,000 - 10,000$: This results in 0, not equivalent to $10,000^1$.

Therefore, the correct choice is $10,000 \cdot 1$, which simplifies to 10,000, making it equivalent to $10,000^1$.

Thus, the expression $10,000^1$ is equivalent to:

$10,000 \cdot 1$

Remember that according to the order of operations, exponents come before multiplication and division, which come before addition and subtraction (and parentheses always before everything),

So first calculate the values of the terms in the power and then subtract between the results:

$3^2-3^3 =9-27=-18$Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
