10-(-2)=10+2=12.
10-7 is smaller than 10-2.
16 -2-4 = 0.0625
it equals 1/25, or 0.04. A number to a negative power is the reciprocal of the number to that same positive power. x^(-y) = 1/(x^y)
1.92*10-2
10-2 is defined as 1 / 102, which is equal to 1/100.
2 to the power of negative one is equal to 0.5
Expressed as a decimal fraction, 6.7 x 10-2 = 0.067
10 to the second power is the inverse of 10 to the negative second power. 10 to the 2nd power is 100 so the inverse of 100 is 1/100 or .01 so 10 to the negative second power is written as 10-2 which is equal to 1/100 or 0.01.

Yes
10-(-2)=10+2=12.
10-7 is smaller than 10-2.
1/22
A negative power can change "sides of the fraction" to become a positive power. For example: 5-2 = 1/52 = 1/25 In this case: 10-4 = 1/104 = 1/10,000 = 0.0001
No Actually... x^(-y) is equal to 1/x^y. 2^(-2) is equal to 1/2^2 which is equal to 1/4 or 0.25.
Yes. 10^-2 = 1/(10^2) = 1/100, 10^-5 = 1/100000
