Order the numbers from smallest to largest

1. |4|
2. sqrt9
3. -3
4. |-5|
5. -3^6
6. 2^3

1 answer

Let's evaluate each of the numbers first:

  1. |4| = 4
  2. sqrt(9) = 3
  3. -3 = -3
  4. |-5| = 5
  5. -3^6 = -729 (because negative exponentiation takes precedence over multiplication)
  6. 2^3 = 8

Now, let's list the evaluated values:

  • 4
  • 3
  • -3
  • 5
  • -729
  • 8

Next, we will order them from smallest to largest:

  • -729
  • -3
  • 3
  • 4
  • 5
  • 8

So, the ordered list from smallest to largest is:

  1. -3^6 = -729
  2. -3
  3. sqrt(9) = 3
  4. |4| = 4
  5. |-5| = 5
  6. 2^3 = 8
