Answer:
The correct choice is:
-2 to the 4th power is positive 16.
Option C is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find mistake make in work below:
[tex](-2x^4)^4=-16x^{16}[/tex]
The mistake here is when we have even power, the negative sign gets positive i.e [tex](-a)^m=a^m[/tex] if m is even
so, in our case it would be:
[tex](-2x^4)^4=16x^{16}[/tex]
The correct choice is:
-2 to the 4th power is positive 16.
Option C is correct.
