What is the negative exponent property?
When you have a negative exponent on, say, 4, it will be written 4^-2 You basically take the reciprocal of it and change the exponent to a positive one. 4^-2 would be 1/4^2
Where is the negative exponent key on a calculator?
negative 4 with negative 3 as an exponent
What is 81 as a negative exponent?
It is (1/3)^(-4) or (1/27)^(-4/3)
How do a make a fraction into a negative exponent?
Any non-zero fraction is the same as its reciprocal raised to the power of -1.So 3/4 = (4/3)-1 and there you have your negative exponent!
When the base and the exponent is negative is the answer negative?
Not always. (-4)-2 = 1/(-4)2 = 1/16 which is positive. (-4)-3 = 1/(-4)3 = 1/(-64) which is negative.
What is 2 to the negative 4th power equal?
A negative exponent or power is equivalent to the reciprocal of the positive exponent. 2-4 = 1/24 = 1/16 = 0.0625

What should you do to make a negative exponent positive in a reciprocal way?
An expression with a negative exponent is equivalent to the positive exponent of its reciprocal. Thus, 3-4 = 1/34 or, equivalently, (1/3)4 or (3/4)-2 = (4/3)2

What is 4 to the negative 3 power?
When a number is raised to a negative exponent, it means to take the reciprocal of the number to the positive exponent. Therefore, 4 to the power of -3 is equal to 1 divided by 4 cubed. This simplifies to 1/64, which is the final answer.
What are the rules for a number with a negative exponent?
A number with a negative exponent should be treated as the reciprocal of that same number with the analogous positive exponent. For example, 42 = 16, but 4-2 = 1/42 = 1/16.
What is 2 with a negative 4 exponent?
A negative exponent is the same as the reciprocal of the number with a positive exponent.Thus 2^(-4) is the reciprocal of 2^4. Now 2^4 = 16 and the reciprocal of 16 is 1/16 so 2^-4 = 1/(2^4) = 1/16 = 0.0625
A negative exponent minus a negative exponent equals?
if its like this: (these are exponents by the way) -8 - (-4) = 4 * * * * * Unfortunately, that is wrong! -8 - (-4) = -8 + 4 = -4 not +4.
