A negative times a negative is a positive, so it's sixteen. (correct me if I'm wrong)

-16 if I remember correctly. (-4)^2 -4^2 They're different.

(-4)^2 = 16, -(4^2) = -16 I call it a vague question.

Well it's -4^2 so: the arrow is pointing directly to you: -4U2, and we all know that U2 is the negative of ME2 so: 4ME2; M is molars duh, and E2 is 10 square in scientific notation 4molar * 10square = 400molar Now, here it gets tricky: molar = moles/volume but you are dark skinned so you are one giant mole, or infinite small moles, see it's tricky. The way to solve this is by realizing your that your hair has a hole. And we all know that hole = 0/0; therefore we must use L'Hopital Rule Using L'Hopital Rule we get 4, I am not going to bother doing the calculations for that in here. Is basic math do it yourself Now volume is 100% you, but is in the denominator, which is the inverse (aka negative) of the numerator, so we get molar = 4/-100 Therefore we get 400*4/-100=-16. Proven!
