Perpendicular lines have a negative reciprocal slope. Slope of y=2x+5 is 2/1 negative reciprocal is (-1/2)
It is y^3/x^2

Any number x raised to a negative power -y is equivalent to the reciprocal of x raised to y. So, 10-73 would be the fraction 1 over the number 1 with 73 zeroes after it. A very small number indeed!
The slope of the perpendicular to a line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of the original line's slope.The negative reciprocal of x is -1/xSo in this case, where the slope is -2 the perpendicular line has the slope -1/(-2) or simply 1/2
it equals 1/25, or 0.04. A number to a negative power is the reciprocal of the number to that same positive power. x^(-y) = 1/(x^y)

Whenever you see a negative exponent (the negative 2nd power), take the reciprocal of the answer (put one over it):x-y = 1/xySo:9-2 = 1/92 = 1/81 = 0.01234567901

it is -1 times one divided by the number that you are taking a reciprocal of. Negative reciprocals are very relevant because you have to take the negative reciprocal of the slope (m) in a function to get a perpendicular line. Ex.: y=2x+1 ┴ y=-1/2*x+1
A reciprocal. x is the reciprocal of y means that x*y = 1 Also, if x is the reciprocal of y then y is the reciprocal of x.
It is y^3/x^2
The reciprocal of a^(-x/y) is 1/a^(x/y). The fact that the exponent is a fraction makes no difference.

When a number is raised to a negative exponent, it means the reciprocal of that number raised to the positive exponent. So, 2 to the negative 2 power is the same as 1 divided by 2 squared, which is 1 divided by 4, or 0.25. This is because raising a number to a negative exponent essentially flips the number to its reciprocal.
