Order the numbers from greatest to least. Ensure you are ordering as follows (use the number line to help you visualize this):

Largest number at the top, smallest number at the bottom -10 - 10

2 to the power of 3
-5
|-2|
3 to the power of 2
|7|
the square root of 16

Largest to smallest order:

|-2| (absolute value of -2, which is 2)
7
2 to the power of 3 (2^3 = 8)
3 to the power of 2 (3^2 = 9)
the square root of 16 (√16 = 4)
-5

are you sure

Apologies for the error in my previous response. Here is the correct order from greatest to least:

7
2 to the power of 3 (2^3 = 8)
3 to the power of 2 (3^2 = 9)
the square root of 16 (√16 = 4)
|-2| (absolute value of -2, which is 2)
-5
