Put in order from least to greatest. A. (1/2)^-3 b. (-2)^-8•(-2)^11 c. 2^6-2^4/2^2 d. 1/4^-2
To order the expressions from least to greatest, we need to simplify each expression first:
a) (1/2)^-3 = 2^3 = 8
b) (-2)^-8 * (-2)^11 = (-2)^(-8+11) = (-2)^3 = -8
c) 2^6 - 2^4 / 2^2 = 64 - 16 / 4 = 64 - 4 = 60
d) 1/4^-2 = 4^2 = 16
Now, putting the expressions in order from least to greatest:
b) (-2)^-8 * (-2)^11 = -8
d) 1/4^-2 = 16
c) 2^6 - 2^4 / 2^2 = 60
a) (1/2)^-3 = 8
So, the order from least to greatest is b, d, c, a.
