Yeah, when the ^2 is not outside any parentheses, you'd just square what was immediately next to it and then the negative is just multiplied to it.

Also note that for this kind of problem, the negative 1 isn't a part of x unless it's within parentheses. Also remember PEMDAS for order of operations. Exponents come before multiplicaton
Yep.
