Is a negative number raised to an odd power always negative?
Yes. Any multiplication involving an odd number of negative operands will be negative (assuming non-zero operands).
When is a negative number raised to an odd power negative?
It is always negative when raised to an odd power and always positive when raised to an even power -2 to the third power = -2 x -2 x -2 = -8 -2 to the fourth power = -2 x -2 x -2 x -2 = +16
Is the product of an odd number of factors always a negative number?
Only if an odd number of the factors are negative numbers.
Does a negative number raised to an odd power simplifies to a negative number?
Yes, a negative number raised to an odd power will simplify to a negative number. This is because when you multiply two negative numbers together, the result is always a positive number. However, when you raise a negative number to an odd power, the negative sign remains, resulting in a negative number. This is a fundamental property of exponents and is consistent across all mathematical operations involving negative numbers.
How do you Raise negative one to the thrid power?
(-1)^3 = -1 Every negative number raised to the odd power is a negative number.
Is the product of an odd number of negative fractions always negative?
Yes, the product of an odd number of negative fractions is always negative. This is because multiplying two negative numbers results in a positive number, and when you multiply a positive number by a negative number, the result is negative. Therefore, with an odd count of negative fractions, one negative will remain after all pairs are multiplied, resulting in a negative product.
Can a negative number be raised to an odd power?
yes, but the answer will remain negative. for example, (-2)3 is -8 in order to make a negative number positive, it must be raised to an even power, for example (-2)2 = 4
Is 5 a negative number?
Five is not a negative number. It is odd, but if you put a - in front of it, it IS negative.(Negative numbers are always preceded by a negative sign, like -5.)
A negative number raised to an odd power is never negative?
You should try it. For example, (-2)3 = (-2)(-2)(-2) = -8.
What is the sign of the answer when an add odd number of negative number are multiplied?
The product of an odd number of negative numbers will be negative.
Is a negative to a negative power positive?
No, or more accurately "not necessarily".A negative to any even power is positive. -2, -4, -6 etc. are even, so a negative number raised to any of those powers will be positive.However, a negative number raised to an odd negative power (-1, -3, -5 etc.) will be negative.
Do all negative integers end with a odd number?
No. -2 is negative and does not end with a odd number.
