Answer:

  • (-2)^2 = 4
  • -2^2 = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first is (-2)(-2) = 4.

The second is -(2)(2) = -4.

The order of operations says exponents are evaluated first. An exponent signifies repeated multiplication of the base.

_____

If your calculator is working correctly, it will show you the difference.

__

Beware spreadsheet programs. They don't always follow the order of operations when evaluating formulas. Parentheses are often required to keep them honest.

Select the correct answer. What is the solution to |x − 6| ≥ 5? A. 1 ≤ x ≤ 11 B. -11 ≤ x ≤ 1 C. x ≥ 11 or x ≤ 1 D. x ≥ 1 or x ≤
diamong [38]

The absolute value of a number <em>a</em> is written as  |a|  . And represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line.

So, Option C. x≥ 11 or x ≤ 1 is correct answer

Inequality given is,

                              |x − 6| ≥ 5

Taking <em>positive case,</em>

                               x − 6 ≥ 5

                               x − 6 + 6 ≥ 5 + 6

                                x ≥ 11

Taking <em>negative case,</em>

                                 x − 6 ≤  - 5

                                x - 6 + 6 ≤ -5 + 6

                                   x ≤ 1

So, solution of given inequality is  x ≥ 11 or   x ≤ 1
