What is the value of the expression shown below?
2 + (3 + 5)2 ÷ 4 ⋅ 1 over 2 whole to the power of 4
a. 3
b. 4
c. 16
d. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

2 + (3+5 ) 2 ÷ 4 ( 1/2)^4

2 + (8 ) 2 ÷ 4 ( 1^4 / 2^4)

Applying rule of exponents which says

(a/b)^m = a^m / b^m

2 + (8 ) 2 ÷ 4 ( 1 / 16)

2 + (8) ( 1/ 2 )  (1 / 16)

2 + 4 ( 1/16)

2 + (1/4)

(8+1)/4

9/4
