Answer:
2^12 = 4096
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant property of exponents is ...
(a^b)^c) = a^(bc)
__
Here, this means ...
(2^3)^4) = 2^(3·4) = 2^12 = 4096
_____
Additional comment
If you simplify this according to the order of operations, you compute the value inside parentheses first:
(2^3)^4 = 8^4 = 4096
The only property of exponents involved is the property that an exponent represents repeated multiplication. 2^3 = 2·2·2 = 8.
