It says use your calculator and round to nearest three decimal points. I don't even know where to start entering it on the calculator.
Thank you so much!

(2.5)^-1.9 + 3square root sign and 12 inside. I am not sure how to make the squareroot sign on my computer. The last part is the square root of 3.

-------------------
Most calculators use the radical symbol for sq roots.
If your calculator doesn't have that, get one that does.
Casio fx-260's are cheap, $8 at Office Depot last time I bought one. $8.97 on Amazon.
--------------------
2.5%5E%28-1.9%29+%2B+3sqrt%2812%29
=~ 0.1753533 + 3.4641
=~ 3.63945

The last part is the square root of 3.
Not sure what you mean by that.
