One can say that X+7 equals 4Y but we can not get an answer for X or an answer for Y without knowing one of them first.
Let's say that if you increase your money on a transaction you have a "positive profit", if you lose money, you have a loss, which we will call a "negative profit". Let's say your profit is minus 100. If you repeat the transaction with a loss 5 times, you will still have a loss - in this case, the profit is minus 500.
when you're doing a problem like that use this trick. let's say you have 3 to the -7 power minus 3 to the 4 power. -7 - 4 can also be shown as -7 + -4. i switched the minus sign to a plus sign and because i did that, i had to switch the positive 4 to a negative 4. so i got 3 to the -7 power plus 3 to the -4 power.
KCC! keep change change ... lets say it is 6-(-7)= 6
negative twelve of coarse, just take of the negative out and just say 11 plus 1
People say it both ways.
The quotient of a positive integer by a negative is always negative. Say this to yourself a couple times: "MULTIPLICATION: minus times minus is plus (negative x negative = positive).....minus times plus is minus (negative x positive = negative).....plus times plus is plus (positive x positive = positive) DIVISION: minus divi minus is plus (negative ÷ negative = positive)......minus divi plus is minus (negative ÷ positive = negative).....plus divi plus is plus (positive ÷ positive = positive)"
If you say so!

Chlorine has a tendency to acquire an additional electron in order to complete its outer electron shell, so in an ionic compound it will form an ion with a charge of minus one. However, the chlorine atom is not negative, it is neutral, like all atoms. It only becomes negative when it becomes an ion.
Two en minus one
When one of them is negative and the other is positive.

A negative power just means to invert it. Let's say we had x^(-2) - it is the same thing as 1/(x^2).
