[tex]======================[/tex]
To find the value of this expression, we will calculate the indicated powers, and then we will subtract and divide the indicated numbers in this expression.
[tex] = ( {2}^{3} - {2})^{2} - 18 \div ( {3}^{2} \times 2)[/tex]
[tex] = (2 \times 2 \times 2 \times {2})^{2} - 18 \div ( {3}^{2} \times 2)[/tex]
[tex] = (2 \times 2 \times 2 - {2})^{2} - 18 \div 3 \times 3 \times 2)[/tex]
[tex] = (8 - {2})^{2} - 18 \div (3 \times 3 \times 2)[/tex]
[tex] = (8 - 2)^{2} - 18 \div (9 \times 2)[/tex]
[tex] = ( {6})^{2} - 18 \div (18)[/tex]
[tex] = 36 - 18 \div 18[/tex]
[tex] = 36 - 1[/tex]
