How do you turn negative exponents into positive exponents?
Put the number with the exponent in the denominator of a fraction and take off the negative symbol. The numerator in that fraction should be 1. Example: 8-2 Converts to: 1 --- 82
How do you change powers with negative exponents to powers with positive exponents?
by doing reciprocal
Is A Fraction Negative if it has a negative numerator?
If the numerator is negative and the denominator is positive then the fraction will be negative. If the numerator is negative and the denominator is negative too then the fraction will be positive.
How do you divide negative exponents with positive exponents?
First: You don't want any negative exponents. I'll give two examples- 5^-2 / 5^2. What you would do is switch the negative exponent to the other side, changing the negative exponent to a positive, and if there's nothing there, replace it with a one. So, now you have 1/ 5^2 * 5^2. Simplify 1/ 25 * 25 1/625. There's your answer. With variables: x^2 / y^-3. Switch the negative to a positive, placing it on the other side. Since the denominator becomes one and all you have are numerators, the denominator isn't needed (but you can still use it while learning the concept). x^2 * y^3. A fully simplified answer. I hope this helps!
What is the Definition of negative exponents?
A negative exponent simply means that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line.For example, if you have x-2, you can turn this into a positive exponent by moving the base to the denominator and changing the sign on the exponent. The result would be:1--x2
How do you make a decimal into a negative exponent?
You look at the denominator first. Then you try to find out what exponents make the denominator. After doing that, you add a negative symbol to the smaller number on the exponent.
Can monomials have negative exponents?
Yes, monomials can have negative exponents. When a monomial has a negative exponent, it means that the variable or variables in the monomial are in the denominator of the fraction. For example, x^(-2) is equivalent to 1/x^2. Negative exponents indicate that the variable should be moved to the opposite side of the fraction line and the exponent becomes positive.
How do you turn negative exponents into positive exponents?
Put the number with the exponent in the denominator of a fraction and take off the negative symbol. The numerator in that fraction should be 1. Example: 8-2 Converts to: 1 --- 82
What is a short cut to answer negative exponents?
Make it a fraction, flip the numerator and denominator, and the exponent is no long negative. For example 4-3 = 1/43 = 1/64
What can a monomial fraction NOT have in its denominator?
Variable exponents.
How do you find the product or quotient using positive exponents when you have negative ones?
Change the number or variable with the exponent from the numerator to the denominator, or from the denominator to the numerator, and at the same time change the exponent from negative to positive. For example, 5-3 = 1/53, and 1/x-10 = x10.
Why do you have negative exponents?
Negative exponents are used to represent 1 divided by an a base to a specific exponent.
How do you simplify mathematical expressions with negative and zero exponents?
Any value to the zero power is 1. If an exponent is negative, you need to switch it from the numerator to the denominator or vice-versa. For example, x-2 is 1/x2.
The exponents in the terms of a polynomial must be?

When multiplying binomials that turn out negative do you add or subtract exponents?
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
