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.
It will be the same as its positive counterpart to the tenth power.
It does not work that way. A negative power is simply the reciprocal. So that x-a = 1/xa The reciprocal is negative or positive according to whether the number itself is negative or positive. [And, if the number is 0, the reciprocal is not defined.]
The result will be a negative value.
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 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.
positive 49 Because a negative times a negative is a positive. -7*-7=49. positive * positive = positive negative * negative= positive positive * negative = Negative
Positive
negative multiplied by negative would be positive
it is positive =1/25
negative
negative: it uses power. Positive: you can google how to save the Envroment and save power

Red is positive, Black is the negative
The result will be a negative value.

The answer is negative (-1 raised to the power of 100 = -1)
