[tex]\frac{2^2+8^2}{2^2} =\frac{(2*2)+(8*8)}{(2*2)} =\frac{4+64}{4} =\frac{68}{4}=17[/tex]
Your answer is C (if my starting equation was right)
Answer:
C. 17
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we first convert 8^2 to something to the power of 2. Since 8=2^3, then 8^2=2^6. So our expression looks like 2^2+2^6 now. Factoring out the 2^2, we get 2^2(1+2^4). Since our expression is divided by 2^2, we get (1+2^4) as our answer which can also be written as 17. So our answer is C.
