Explanation:
5) if base is negative and raised to a power of without parenthesis like -4², the negative sign stays on the expression, so it'll equal to -16
However, if the base is negative and has parenthesis, like (-4)² then the negative sign will be multiplied too, resulting in 16.
-4² = -(4)*(4)
(-4)² = (-4)*(-4)
