Evaluate:
2 to the fourth power + 2 to the third power
To evaluate the expression 2 to the fourth power + 2 to the third power, we need to calculate each term separately and then add them together.
First, let's calculate 2 to the fourth power. This means multiplying 2 by itself four times:
2^4 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 16.
Next, let's calculate 2 to the third power. This means multiplying 2 by itself three times:
2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8.
Finally, we add the results together:
2^4 + 2^3 = 16 + 8 = 24.
Therefore, the value of the expression 2 to the fourth power + 2 to the third power is 24.
