When a base of an exponential expression is apositive real number and exponent is an integer?
Then, if the exponent is a positive integer, the value is 1 multiplied by the base repeatedly, exponent times. If the exponent is a negative integer then it is the reciprocal of the above value.In either case, it is NOT the base multiplied by itself an exponent number of times.
What are negative intergery exponents?
I assume you mean "negative integer exponents".It means that: * It is an exponent * It is an integer (whole number) * It is negative (less than zero, i.e., with a minus sign) A negative exponent is defined as the reciprocal of the positive exponent. For example, 10 to the power -5 is the same as 1 / (10 to the power 5).
What is a positive integer exponent?
An exponent that is a positive integer. For example, x3 has a positive exponent, while 8-5 does not.
If the coefficient of the expression axn is a fraction and the exponent is positive will the expression be a polynomial?
Not necessarily. Every exponent in the exponent must be a non-negative integer. This is not what you have specified. For example, if n = 3.5, it is not a term in a polynomial expression.
What is the smallest three digit number with all the digit different?
Since there are no specifications --- Positive integer: 102 Positive rational number: 0.12 Negative integer: -987 Negative exponent: -87^9
What is the part of a power is the number of times that the factor is repeatedly multiplied?
The index or the exponent - but only if it is a non-negative integer.
Where is the negative exponent key on a calculator?
negative 4 with negative 3 as an exponent
Can monomials have negative exponents?
Monomials can have negative exponents, if the term for the exponent is not a variable, but if it is a variable with a negative exponent, the whole expression will not be classified. This is so because the definition of a monomial states that, a monomial can be a product of a number and one or more variables with positive integer exponents. I hope that answered your question!
Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
What does the term negative exponent mean in math?

What is the quotient of a negative integer and a negative integer?
