A. 2^7

Explanation:

I just put it through a calculator.

Answer 2

A.
`2^7`

Explanation:

The expression
`2^3 * 4^2` can be written as:

`2^3 * (2*2)^2` since 4 is the product of 2².

This can be simplified into:

`2^3 * (2^2)^2`, which can be simplified according to the law of exponents that states: Whenever you have an exponent expression that is raised to a power, you can simplify by multiplying the outer power on the inner power:

`(x^m)^n = x^m^n`

This allows us to simplify the expression into:

`2^3 * 2^4`, which we can simplify further using the exponent property that allows us to add exponents when 2 numbers with the same base are multiplied:

`2^3^+^4` =
`2^7`
