Find the numerical equivalent of 25 ⋅2−2 (1 point) Responses 8 8 2 2 128 128 16
To find the numerical equivalent of 25 ⋅ 2^(-2), we can use the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS) to simplify the expression.
First, we need to calculate 2^(-2), which means raising 2 to the power of -2. This can be done by dividing 1 by 2^2, which is equal to 1/4 or 0.25.
Next, we multiply 25 by the result of 2^(-2):
25 * 0.25 = 6.25
Therefore, the numerical equivalent of 25 ⋅ 2^(-2) is 6.25.
r u sure?
Apologies for the mistake in my previous response.
The correct calculation for 25 ⋅ 2^(-2) is as follows:
First, we need to calculate 2^(-2), which means raising 2 to the power of -2. 2^(-2) is equal to 1 / (2^2), which is equal to 1/4 or 0.25.
Next, we multiply 25 by the result of 2^(-2):
25 * 0.25 = 6.25.
Therefore, the numerical equivalent of 25 ⋅ 2^(-2) is indeed 6.25.
