Order the numbers from smallest to largest (smallest on the far left and largest on the far right)

Question

−3^2
−3 
√9 
|4|
|-5|
2^3

Answer 1

Let's evaluate each expression first:

1. \(-3^2\) = \(-9\) (Note: this is negative three squared, which is different from \((-3)^2\)).
2. \(-3\) = \(-3\)
3. \(\sqrt{9}\) = \(3\)
4. \(|4|\) = \(4\)
5. \(|-5|\) = \(5\)
6. \(2^3\) = \(8\)

Now, let's list these results:

• \(-9\)
• \(-3\)
• \(3\)
• \(4\)
• \(5\)
• \(8\)

Now we can order them from smallest to largest:

\(-9, -3, 3, 4, 5, 8\)

So, the final ordered list is:

\(-9, -3, 3, 4, 5, 8\)
