Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the exponent

First, we handle the exponentiation. \(10^2 = 10\times10 = 100\)

Step2: Calculate the multiplication

Next, we perform the multiplication. \(40\cdot8 = 40\times8 = 320\)

Step3: Subtract the results

Finally, we subtract the result of the exponentiation from the result of the multiplication. \(320 - 100 = 220\)

Answer:

220
