Evaluate -a^n when a=3 and n=2,3,4 and 5.now evaluate (-a)^n when a=3 and n=2,3,4 and 5.based on this sample, between -a^n and (-a)^n?

values when a = 3 and n = 2,3,4, and 5




----------------------------------- other expression

value when a = 3 and n = 2,3,4, and 5





 the two expressions only have the same value when n is an odd number.  One expression is the opposite of the results of a raised to the power of n and the other is the opposite of a being raised to the power of n... what is in bold happens 1st in the order of operations
