Find the numerical equivalent of 2^5 ⋅2^−2 Responses 128 2 16 8

Answer 1

The numerical equivalent of 2^5 ⋅2^−2 can be found by using the rule of exponents which states that when you multiply two numbers with the same base, you add their exponents.

So, 2^5 ⋅2^−2 can be simplified as follows:

2^5 ⋅2^−2 = 2^(5 + (-2)) = 2^3

Therefore, the numerical equivalent is 8. So the correct response is 8.
