Put them from least to greatest.

Question

(1/2)^-3
(-2)^-8 x (-2)^11
2^6 - 2^4/2^2
1/4^-2

Answer 1

To compare these values and arrange them from least to greatest, let's simplify each expression:

(1/2)^-3 = 2^3 = 8

(-2)^-8 x (-2)^11 = (-2)^(11 - 8) = (-2)^3 = -8

2^6 - 2^4/2^2 = 64 - 16/4 = 64 - 4 = 60

1/4^-2 = 4^2 = 16

Arranging them from least to greatest: -8, 8, 16, 60.
