Hello there!
Evaluate a² for a = -4
The first step we need to do is replace a by -4
So we have (-4)²
Now what you have realize is that we need to multiply -4 by itself twice.
So it should looks like this:
-4 * -4
The rules says that when we have minus * minus, the answer is positive.
So we have -4 * -4 = 16
Answer: 16
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Answer: 216 cm2 (square centimetres
, in your question you had to put cm3, cubic centimetres, it's IMPORTANT )
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect cube by definition has 3 equal dimensions, as an immediate rule: volume and total surface are equal, only the unit of measure changes (cubic for the volume, square for surface).
But let's calculate it anyway:
Volume = Edge * Edge * Edge = length * width * depth =
(remember: all edges are equal in this case)
so Edge = ![\sqrt[3]{Volume}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7BVolume%7D)
in your example Edge =
= 6cm
So the surface of one side is 6*6 = 36
There are 6 sides in total, so the total surface is 6*36 = 216 
Note: I call them "edges" but in case of a cube most say just "length"
Howdy!
using the expression 14.99(n) + 4.99, the total of 3 CDs would cost $49.96.
