Examples :
(-2)^3 = (-2)(-2)(-2) = - 8
(-3)^4 = (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) = 81
(-1)^5 = (-1)(-1)(-1)(-1)(-1) = -1
** if the exponent is an even number, the answer will be positive. if the exponent is an odd number, then the answer will be negative
** but keep in mind....if the negative is not included with the base..
-(5^2) = - 25....but (-5^2) = 25

The estimated area is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To estimate the area that Ivan will paint , calculate the area of one wall and then multiply by 3
step 1
Convert the dimensions to an improper fractions


step 2
Find the area of one wall

step 3
Multiply the area of one wall by 3

step 4
Convert to mixed number

(x+5)(x-5) , You use difference of two squares to do this. Remember that if the sign in the equation was (+) then you wouldn’t be able to continue factoring. You can only factor equations like these if there is a subtraction sign.
