this is a very dumb question but what is -1^2? my calculator says its -1 but isnt -1*-1 = 1 im very confused plzz help

yes; -1² is 1.

if you put -1 in parentheses, like this (-1)², then it comes out as 1

it is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to put the number between parenthesis to give you the right answer. the calculator actually taking the minus sign separate from 1 because no brackets . Try (-1)²

answer: no

step-by-step explanation:

you are only given the cost not the amount of pounds.

answer is : muchas/tipicas

have a nice day!
