What is the value of (7^2)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 49
An exponent of 2 means multiplying 7 by itself: \(7^2 = 7 \times 7 = 49\). Therefore, 49 is the correct answer. The value 14 comes from \(7+7\), not from squaring 7. Exam tip: Rewrite \(a^2\) as \(a \times a\) before calculating.
