-4 x 9 - (-10)
= - 45 + 10
= - (45 - 10)
= - 35
Rule: Negative times positive is negative; Negative times negative is positive
Square the -5 then use substitution (just combine the numbers)
Answer:
when a expression is squared (²) that means it is multiplyed by itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/2)² = (1/2 x 1/2)
1 squared = 1
2 squared = 4
1/4 is smaller than 1/2. 1/2 is greater than (1/2)²
First set up the equation:

Then substitute in known values:

and solve for C
