To solve the expression \(27^{\frac{2}{3}} + \left(\frac{1}{16}\right)^{-0.75} - 25^{0.5}\), let's break it down step by step:
Calculate \(27^{\frac{2}{3}}\):
The expression \(27^{\frac{2}{3}}\) can be interpreted as the cube root of 27 raised to the power of 2.
\[ 27 = 3^3 \]
So, the cube root of 27 is 3, and raising this to the power of 2 gives:
\[ (27^{\frac{1}{3}})^2 = 3^2 = 9 \]
Calculate \(\left(\frac{1}{16}\right)^{-0.75}\):
The negative exponent means we take the reciprocal of the base and then apply the positive exponent. First, let's express \( \frac{1}{16} \) in terms of a power of 2:
\[ \frac{1}{16} = 2^{-4} \]
Thus, \( \left(\frac{1}{16}\right)^{-0.75} \) transforms to:
\[ (2^{-4})^{-0.75} = 2^{4 \times 0.75} = 2^3 = 8 \]
Calculate \(25^{0.5}\):
The expression \(25^{0.5}\) represents the square root of 25:
\[ \sqrt{25} = 5 \]
Combine the results:
Now, you can combine all the computed values:
\[ 9 + 8 - 5 = 12 \]
Therefore, the value of the expression \(27^{\frac{2}{3}} + \left(\frac{1}{16}\right)^{-0.75} - 25^{0.5}\) is \(12\).
