The expression is:

\[
4^2 + 2 \times 10
\]

We follow the order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

1. Calculate the exponent:  
   \[
   4^2 = 16
   \]

2. Perform the multiplication:  
   \[
   2 \times 10 = 20
   \]

3. Add the results:  
   \[
   16 + 20 = 36
   \]

So, the value of the expression is \(36\).
