-3^2= -(3)^2
The exponent of 2 only applies to the number 3. -(3)^2 should equal -9. This is true because according to the order of operations, exponents should be evaluated before multiplication. The negative sign here represents -1* 3^2.
If you want to find -3 to the power of 2 it must be written (-3)^2.
It is negative.
When you subtract a negative a positive number from a negative number, the result is positive. The equation can be rewritten as -8.8-(+3.4).
