What do I do when a exponent is outside a penthouse and what’s the distance when there’s no parentheses?

Question

 What is the difference between a number inside a print to see‘s with a exponent on the outside and between there be an in just a number with an exponent 

Answer 1

Danielle, it is odd, I would swear that I told you a concrete example, but we must have missed hitting “Answer”. I’ll try again.

Parentheses mean to group values together that would otherwise be separate.

Here is an example:

 

(2x)³ is not the same as 2x³

(2x)³ means “ multiply 2 times x,AND THEN raise the result to the 3rd power”

 

2x³ means “raise x to the 3rd power, AND THEN multiply by 2” Does the help?
