Negative 8 to the negative 2 power is equal to 1/(-8)^2, which simplifies to 1/64. So, the answer is 1/64. Hope that helps, sweetie!
A negative power equals the reciprocal of the same number to the equivalent positive power. Example : 2 ⁻³ = 1/2³ Then 8⁻² = 1/8² = 1/64 = 0.015625
One half to the negative first power is equal to the reciprocal of one half raised to the first power. The reciprocal of one half is two, so (1/2)^(-1) = 1 / (1/2) = 1 * 2 = 2.
Oh, what a happy little question! When you have 2 to the power of -6, it means you're taking the reciprocal of 2 to the power of 6. So, 2 to the negative 6th power is 1 over 2 to the 6th power, which simplifies to 1 over 64. Just a little fraction painting to brighten your day!
It can be a negative or a positive number depending on the absolute value of the power.e.g.(-4) to the power of -2 gives (1/16) and(-4) to the power of -1 gives (-1/4)

The answer is 1/2!
Answer #1:Negative one-half to the negative 4th power, ie -((1/2)-4) equals -16Answer #2:Negative one-half to the negative 4th power, ie (-1/2)-4 equals +16

2-1 x 2-2 = 2-1 + -2 = 2-3 = 1/8, or one eighth.
9 to negative 2 = 1/9 to plus 2 = 1/81
0.03 is the square power
A negative power equals the reciprocal of the same number to the equivalent positive power. Example : 2 ⁻³ = 1/2³ Then 8⁻² = 1/8² = 1/64 = 0.015625
That is the definition of negative powers.
-2 to the first power = -2^1. -2^1 = -2*1. -2*1 = -2. The answer is negative two.
A negative exponent is 1 over the base to the power of the absolute value of the exponent. For example 2 to the power of -1 is 1/2, 2 to the power of -2 is 1/4, or (1/2) squared, and 2 to the power of -3 is 1/8, or (1/2) cubed.
