No. The signs of the exponents don't affect the add, subtract, multiply, or divide operations.
( 8-1 ) x ( 8-2 ) = ( 1/8 ) x ( 1/82 ) = ( 1/8 ) x ( 1/64 ) = 1/512 = 0.00195 (rounded)
Another way to do it:
( 8-1 ) x ( 8-2 ) = ( 8-3 ) = ( 1/83 ) = 1/512
10n where n is positive is 10*10*10... n times [or 1 followed by n zeros] 10-n where n is positive is 1/10n = 1/(10*10*10...) n times [or 0.0...01 where there are n-1 zeros between the decimal point and the 1]
Negative 100 times negative 1 equals to positive 100.
It is a positive reciprocal. x-a = 1/xa or equivalently, (1/x)a
the number, like 5 to the 0 power would be 1, because any number that is put to the power of another number, that is positive, cannot go below 1. (2)0
It is the positive form of the number raised to that power, multpilied by -1 raised to that power.
When a negative number is raised to an even power, the result is always positive. Therefore, (-1)^4 equals 1. This is because multiplying a negative number by itself an even number of times will always result in a positive value.
Any number (except zero) to the zero power is 1. -1 If it was positive anything it would be 1. Anything positive to the power -0 = 1 Anything negative to the power -0 = -1
x-5 power = 1 over x to the positive 5th power which would look like this: 1 ---- x5
No it is ten to the negative fourth power. If the number is greater than 1 it is to a positive power, if the number is smaller thann 1 it is to a negative power.
10n where n is positive is 10*10*10... n times [or 1 followed by n zeros] 10-n where n is positive is 1/10n = 1/(10*10*10...) n times [or 0.0...01 where there are n-1 zeros between the decimal point and the 1]
One to any power is still one. If the power is positive, you have 1 times itself over and over again, so it does not change. If the power is zero, the answer is always one, no matter the number. If the power is negative, you find the reciprocal of the expression and make the power positive. If the base of the exponential expression is 1, it is always one.
6 to the -2nd power = 1/366-2 = 1/62 = 1/36
To get your answer, you'd first take negative 6 times itself. That would give you positive 36. So negative 6 to the second power would be 36. But you're not raising it to the second power, you're raising it to the negative power. That means take 1 over it. So instead of 36, your answer would be the inverse, which means 1/36.
+[+3]^-1 = 1/3 or .3333
First of all, 31 is 3. Now 3-2 is 1/32, which is 1/9. So the answer is 3/9, or 1/3. If by positive indices you mean positive exponents, that would be 1/31, because 1 plus -2 is -1, so you get 3-1 which is 1/31.
The answer is negative (-1 raised to the power of 100 = -1)
Negative 100 times negative 1 equals to positive 100.
