Work out the value of these two questions:

1) 3^2 + 2^3

2) 2^4 - 3^2

Let's take these questions one step at a time.

1) 3^2 + 2^3

3^2 is the same as saying 3 * 3

3 * 3 = 9

2^3 is the same as saying 2 * 2 * 2

2 * 2 = 4 * 2 = 8

Now, let's add them together: 9 + 8 = 17

2) 2^4 - 3^2

2^4 is the same as saying 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

2 * 2 = 4 * 2 = 8 * 2 = 16

3^2 is the same as saying 3 * 3

3 * 3 = 9

Now, let's solve the problem.

16 - 9 = 7

And there you go!

That's correct he is very right with that answer
