Question

4. Explain the difference between (-5)2 anc
-52.

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is super easy bc it is only a small difference. The outcome of (-5)^2 will be 25 meanwhile -5^2 will have an outcome of -25

Answer 2

(-5)² = 25 -5² = -25

Explanation:

When we have (-5)², then -5 gets multiplied to itself. When there are two negative numbers, the answer is always positive. ex. (-5 x - 5 = 25)

(-5)² = 25

-5 x 5 = -25

-5² = -25
