The answer to your question is (2x + 2y)^-1 = 1/(2x + 2y)^1. When you raise a number to a negative power, you can rewrite it by dividing one by the original number with the negative sign dropped from the exponent. Because the power here is 1, you can rewrite the answer again to 1/(2x + 2y) since any number raised to the power of 1 is simply the number itself. You can't add 2x and 2y because they are two different variables.

When you have a negative slope is the whole thing negative?

What is the "whole thing?" Also, if a line has a negative slope, it doesn't mean that all points on the line have negative coordinates. It just means that for every increase in x, there is a decrease in y. On a straight line, the gradient is the same all the way along. Which, if this is how you meant it, the "whole thing" is negative. However not all coordinates will be negative.
