Is a negative to a negative power positive?
No, or more accurately "not necessarily".A negative to any even power is positive. -2, -4, -6 etc. are even, so a negative number raised to any of those powers will be positive.However, a negative number raised to an odd negative power (-1, -3, -5 etc.) will be negative.
When a negative number is raised to an odd exponent what is the sign of the result?
When a negative number is raised to an odd exponent, the result is always negative. This is because multiplying an odd number of negative factors results in a negative product. For example, ((-2)^3 = -8), which illustrates that the outcome retains the negative sign.
A negative number raised to an odd power is never negative?
You should try it. For example, (-2)3 = (-2)(-2)(-2) = -8.
When you take a negative number to an odd power you get a negative answer Why do you get a positive answer when you take an odd number to an even power?
When you raise a negative number to an odd power, the multiplication of an odd number of negative factors results in a negative product. In contrast, raising a negative number to an even power involves multiplying it by itself an even number of times, which pairs up the negative factors to yield a positive product. This is due to the fact that multiplying two negative numbers produces a positive result. Thus, the overall effect of multiplying an even number of negative factors is positive.
