|-3|,|3^2|,|-2|,|3.5|,-1

O -1, 3, 1-21, 1-31, 13.5|
O 13.51, 2, -1, 1-21, 1-3|
O 13.51,-1,1]], 1-21,73
0-1, 3,1-31
, 1-2, 13:51

Answer 1

-1, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|, |3²|

• Calculate the absolute value (the absolute value of any number is always positive): 3, 3², 2 , 3.5, -1

• Calculate the exponents : 3, 9, 2 , 3.5, -1

• Put in order least to greatest : -1, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|, |3²|
