Evaluate: a+b^4 where a=2, b=3

1 answer

To evaluate a+b^4 where a=2 and b=3, we substitute the values of a and b into the expression:

a + b^4 = 2 + 3^4

Now, calculate the value of 3^4:

3^4 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 81

So, the expression simplifies to:

2 + 81 = 83

Therefore, when a=2 and b=3, a+b^4 equals 83.
