No, becasue of PEMDAS
so parenthasees first
exponents next
mulitplciation next

(-2)^4=-2 times -2 times -2 times -2=positive number since even number of negative signs

-2^4=-1 times 2^2=-1 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2=negative number since odd number of negative signs

They are not equivalent. 
because (-2)^4 is in the parenthesis so the - before 2 are together and both will go to the 4 power so the answer will be: (-2)^4 = 16 
but the other one is not in the parenthesis so the - will not go to the 4 power and the answer will be: -2^4 = -16 
so 16 is not equivalent to -16 :)))
i hope this is helpful 
have a nice day

Find the perimeter of this figure. Please show work. ​
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

  40.56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the "sides" of this figure. Starting from the left side and working clockwise, the sum is ...

  P = left side (8 ft) + top side (10 ft) + semicircle (1/2×8 ft×π) + bottom side (10 ft)

  = 28 ft + 4π ft

  = (28 +12.56) ft

  P = 40.56 ft
