Question

What is 8n to the 2nd power - 17

Answer 1

64n - 17

Explanation:

8 to the 2nd power is 64 (basically 8 x 8), since it has the variable*(the n) next to it; we can't subtract 17 from 64, therefore we leave 64n by itself and put the - 17 next to it. It should look like this: 64n - 17.

I hope this helped!
