-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.
Answer:
A.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Translations are as follows: Up is + on Y axis, down is - on Y axis. Right is + on X axis and left is - on X axis.
The function f(x) = x+8 is translated to (0,8) since their is no number in a bracket with x (example: f(x)= (x-2)+5 would be (2,5) since the X axis is taken as the opposite sign).
g(x) = x-3 translates to (0,-3) which is 11 units down from f(x)
The equation is:
h ( t ) = - 16 t² + 60 t + 3
The toy rocket will reach the ground when: h ( t ) = 0
- 16 t² + 60 t + 3 = 0
t 1 = - 0.05
t 2 = 3.8
