To order these numbers from largest to smallest, let's first evaluate each expression:
- -3 (is -3)
- √9 (is 3)
- 15 (is 15)
- -4 (is -4)
- 2³ (is 8)
- -3² (is -9; note that -3² equals -9, not 9)
Now, let's list the evaluated numbers:
-3 3 15 -4 8 -9
Now we will arrange these numbers in order from largest to smallest:
- 15
- 8
- 3
- -3
- -4
- -9
So the final ordered list, from largest to smallest, is:
- 15
- 8
- 3
- -3
- -4
- -9
