10 raised to the power 10, which is 10000000000
Places in the decimal system are based on powers of ten. 10^2 = hundreds 10^-2 = hundredths 10^1 = tens 10^-1 = tenths 10^0 = ones Since zero doesn't have a negative counterpart, the ones column stands alone.
It won't always result in a negative integer. Multiplyinga positive number and a negative number always results in a negative number. For example 3 x -2 = -6. Adding a positive number and a negative number can result in a negative number but it does not have to.When adding a positive number with a negative number, we really subtract from the largest number in the absolute value the smallest number in the absolute value, and we keep the sign of the number with the larger absolute value. So the sign of the number with the larger absolute value will determine the sign of the answer.Some examples:10 + (-7) = 3Here, 10 is the largest number in the absolute value, because |10| = 10, and |-7| = 7. So, 10-7=3. 3 will be positive since 10 was positive7 + (-10) = -3Here, -10 is the largest number in absolute value, because |-10| = 10, and |7| = 7. So, 10 - 7 = 3. 3 will be a negative number since -10 was negative number. Thus, the answer will be -3.-10 + 7 = -3-7 + 10 = 3It all depends on whether the number with the larger absolute value is negative or positive. If it is positive then the answer will be positive. If it is negative then the answer will be negative. If the two numbers have an equal absolute value, then the result is zero, which is neither positive nor negative.
-10 and -6 A negative times a negative gives you a positive number, -10 * -6 = 60 While -10 + (-6) = -10 - 6 = -16
10-7 is smaller than 10-2.
10, 100, 1000, 10000, ... are the positive powers. 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, ... are negative powers.
-65(10) = 808,281,277,464,764,060,643,139,600,456,536,293,376
The question could mean 5 divided by (10 raised to the negative 3),or it could mean (5 divided by 10) raised to the negative 3 .5/(10)-3 = 5 x (10)3 = 5,000===========================(5/10)-3 =( 1/2)-3 = 23 = 8
10-1 = 1/10 A number raised to a negative power is equal to the reciprocal of the number raised to the power. So a-b = (1/a)b = 1/ab
A negative powers is defined as the reciprocal of the corresponding positive power. For example, 10-3 is the same a 1 / 103.
a one with 32 zeros in front of it
10, and its negative and positive powers.
10 raised to the power of -1 is 0.1
104= 10*10*10*10 = 10,000 Negative powers are defined so that a-b= 1/ab.Thus, 10-4= 1/104= 1/10,000 = 0.0001
The digits to its left are in places with increasing non-negative powers of 10. The digits to the right are in places with increasing negative powers of 10. So,for example, abcd.efg = a*103 + b*102 + c*101 + d*100 + e*10-1 + f*10-2 + g*10-3
The exponent in this case is the small number written in superscript (raised) to the right of the 10.
