what is eight less than two cubed?

Answer 1

Your equation will become 2³ - 8 because this states 8 less than 2 cubed.

When you have an exponent, you must multiple the number by itself however many times the exponent says. In this case, you will have 2 x 2 x 2.

(2 x 2 x 2) - 8

(4 x 2) - 8

(8) - 8
