To evaluate the expression \( 6 - 10 \times 2^4 + 8 \), follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
1. **Exponents**: Compute \( 2^4 \).
\[
2^4 = 16
\]
2. **Multiplication**: Next, perform the multiplication \( 10 \times 16 \).
\[
10 \times 16 = 160
\]
3. **Replace in the expression**: Substitute back into the expression.
\[
6 - 160 + 8
\]
4. **Subtraction and addition**: Perform the operations from left to right.
\[
6 - 160 = -154
\]
\[
-154 + 8 = -146
\]
So, the value of the expression \( 6 - 10 \times 2^4 + 8 \) is \(-146\).
