Does a negative number times a negative equal a neg answer?
No, a negative number times a negative number will equal a positive answer. e.g. -2 x-2 = 4 (a positive 4) e.g. -3 x -3 = 9 (positive)
Does a negative number plus a negative number equal a positive or a negative number?
It could equal both a negagtive number or a positive number. To get a definite positive or negative you times or divide. Well in addition and subtraction negative plus a negative equals a bigger negative. Kinda like -4+-4 =-8, but in multiplication and division 2 negatives equal a positive. -2 times-2 =positive 4.
What is the difference between base and exponent?
lol dont be silly. google it. jk um, base is like 2. exponent is like to what power you are multiplying the base. 2^3 is 2 times 2 times 2 which equals 8
What does positive 4 negative 2 equal?
2
What does -2 to the 4 power equal?
2
What is negative exponent?
It's a number up and just to the right of the bigger first number. If its. 3 2 Then you multiply it like 2 times 2times 2 With negative exponent you switch it from negative to positive every other one starting with negative. We do this because a negative and a negative multiplied together equal a positive and a positive times a negative is negative. -123771
What is the negative exponent law?
If you have a negative exponent, then put 1/the number multiplied by itself the number of times of the exponent. For example: 3-2=1/(3x3)=1/9
What is 2 to the negative 4th power equal?
A negative exponent or power is equivalent to the reciprocal of the positive exponent. 2-4 = 1/24 = 1/16 = 0.0625
What is the product of a negative number with an exponent and a positive number?
The result is a negative number which may or may not have an exponent. For example, -2*102 times 4 = -8*102 -2*102 times 0.04 = -8
What is the simple expressions of two y exponent of 3 times negative two x with exponent of negative one times three y to the exponent of four?
2y3 * (-2)x-1 * 3y4 = 2*(-2)*3*(1/x)*y3*y4 = -12y7/x
Why does a negative exponent equal a fraction?
n to the -2 power is improper, to get rid of the negative, you flip it so, n to the -2 would be 1 /n to the 2
What does 6with the exponent of 2 equal?

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.
What is the negative exponent property?
When you have a negative exponent on, say, 4, it will be written 4^-2 You basically take the reciprocal of it and change the exponent to a positive one. 4^-2 would be 1/4^2
How do you solve when you have a negative exponent?
A negative exponent is the same as 1/(the positive exponent). For example, 2^3 is (2*2*2) = 8. 2^(-3) is 1/(2*2*2) = 1/8. So, just calculate the positive exponent version, and put it under 1.
