I assume you mean "negative integer exponents".It means that:
* It is an exponent
* It is an integer (whole number)
* It is negative (less than zero, i.e., with a minus sign)
A negative exponent is defined as the reciprocal of the positive exponent. For example, 10 to the power -5 is the same as 1 / (10 to the power 5).
