To evaluate this expression, we need to follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, and Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
First, we simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
6 - 2 = 4
Now we substitute this value back into the original expression, and evaluate the exponent:
17 - 4 = 13
13^2 = 169
Therefore, the value of the expression 17 - (6 - 2) to the power of 2 is 169.
Evaluate
17 – (6 – 2) to the power of 2
