It's called an ess-ztet

That's spelling is definitely wrong, but it's something like that.

It is the German letter for double "s". It is used in most cases where a double s occurs. For example, the German word for "hot" is "heiß", and if there was no ß, it would be "heiss". I think they use "ss" in one part of Germany, and "ß" in the other half, just like they pronounce the German word for "I" in one half as "Ish" and in the other half it is pronounced as "Ikh", but it is spelled as "Ich". It's confusing, but all you need to know really is that ß=ss

It depends if there are parentheses or not... for example if the problem looks like this: (-b)^2, then do (-b)x(-b) and get b^2 OR if the problem looks like this: -b^2, then do -(b)(b) which would be -b^2 As u can see, the parentheses' placement make a large difference in the final answer.
