When a number is raised to the power of 2, it means that the number is multiplied by itself. In mathematical terms, X to the power of 2 is written as X^2, or X * X. This is equivalent to X squared, and represents the area of a square with sides of length X.

= Z X and Y are examples. 2 to the power of X multiplied by 2 to the power 2 equals 16 What is X? X=2 2 to the power of 2 (2x2) multiplied (X) by 2 to the power of 2 (2x2) (2x2)4 X (2x2)4 = 4X4 = 16
It is always negative when raised to an odd power and always positive when raised to an even power -2 to the third power = -2 x -2 x -2 = -8 -2 to the fourth power = -2 x -2 x -2 x -2 = +16
A similar question can be solved as below : If x to the power 4 plus 1 upon x to the power 4 equals 23 then what will be (x minus 1 upon x) to the power 2 equals what?a2 + b2 = (a + b)^2 - 2ab.so (x^2 )^2 + (1/x2)^2 = (x^2 + 1/x^2)^2 - 2 = 23.so (x^2 + 1/x^2) = 5.therefore(x - 1/x)^2 = (x^2 + 1/x^2) -2 = 5 -2 = 3.
The square root of x to the 10th power is x to the 10th power raised to the 1/2 power, which simplifies to x to the 10/2 power. This further simplifies to x to the 5th power. Therefore, the square root of x to the 10th power is x to the 5th power.
2 root 4 = 2 x 2; -2 to the power 4 is 16 (-2/4/-8/16)
