-6 x 6
-216
36
Exactly! -6 to the power of 2 means "-6 times -6". That's a negative times a negative, and the answer is positive 36.
-9 x -4 = 36
It would be 36 since a negative times a negative is positive. A negative times a positive is negative.-6*-6=36-7*-5=35-5*-7=35...
-36 x 2/3 = -24
9 * -4 = -36
6 to the -2nd power = 1/366-2 = 1/62 = 1/36
The negative square of 36 is -(36*36) = -1296. It is rational.

-12 - -36 = 24
To get your answer, you'd first take negative 6 times itself. That would give you positive 36. So negative 6 to the second power would be 36. But you're not raising it to the second power, you're raising it to the negative power. That means take 1 over it. So instead of 36, your answer would be the inverse, which means 1/36.
