When rewriting an exponential expression with a negative exponent and a positive base to an expression containing only a positive exponent does the sign of the base change?
No.
How do you make a negative exponent positive?
You can do it if you replace the base by its reciprocal.
What is x to the power minus 0.5?
A negative exponent means the same as a positive exponent in the denominator. Thus, x-0.5 = 1/x0.5. This, in turn, is equivalent to 1/(square root of x).
What do you do when multiplying a positive exponent by a negative exponent?
Example: (4x)-2 The answer to this would be 1/ 16x2. Multiply it out as if the negative exponent was not there ((4x)2), then that will be the denominator of the fraction. The numerator is one.
If the coefficient of the expression axn is negative and the exponent is positive will the expression be a polynomial?
