Write the mantissa as a negative number.
Please consider the following two facts: A negative number to an even power is positive; but a negative number to an odd power is negative. Any positive number is greater than any negative number.
When a negative number is raised to an even power the result is a positive number
A negative power. When something is to the power of negative two, say X it would be 1/X. If something is to the power of negative 3, it would be.... etc
The result will be a negative value.

(-1)^3 = -1 Every negative number raised to the odd power is a negative number.
negative
Yes
a negative exponent simply indicates that the term is the reciprocal of the given value. x to the power of negative 2 is 1/x^2
A number to a negative power is equal to One divided by number to its positive power. So, x^-2 is equal to 1/x2.

Negative, because 5 is an odd number
A negative power gives you the reciprocal of the positive power so yes you flip your number.
