There should be a negative button on your calculator, separate from the minus button. Press that button before pressing the buttons for the numbers of the exponent.

How do you find square root on calculator with out using the square root sign?
Assuming the calculator can do exponents, take the number and raise it to the power of 1/2.
How do you calculate root of any complex number using casio Fx 991MS calculator?
Not sure about the Casio, but most calculators which have capability to handle complex numbers should be similar. Input the complex number according to however you normally do that, then raise to a power. In the case of roots, you want to raise to a reciprocal power: Square root is 0.5 power, cube root is 1/3 power, fourth root is 0.25 power, etc
What is a number raised to the third power called?
When you raise a number to the third power, you get the 'cube' of the original number.
How do you raise a number to the power of three?
Multiply the number by itself three times. For example: if you want to raise the number 2 to the third power then 2^3=2x2x2=8.
Why is a number raised to the third power called cubed?
When you raise a number to the third power, you get the 'cube' of the original number
How do you Raise negative one to the thrid power?
(-1)^3 = -1 Every negative number raised to the odd power is a negative number.
How do you find square root on calculator with out using the square root sign?
Assuming the calculator can do exponents, take the number and raise it to the power of 1/2.
How do you type negative exponents into a calculator?
If your calculator is advanced, like the TI-84, there is an exponent button you can hit. Then, just Type negative and the exponent. If it is a simpler calculator, like a four-function calculator, there IS a way. By raising a number to a negative exponent, you are saying that one is being divided by that number to the positive version of that power. Ex: 5^-8 = 1/(5^8). To do this, divide one by the base, then raise it to the exponent, making sure that the exponent is POSITIVE. Also be careful that the entire denominator is in parentheses, just in case.
What are sequence of steps using a calculator to find the square root of a number?
If your calculator has an exponentiation function, simply raise the number to the power of .5 Remember this trick: the nth root of X = X ^ (1/n)
How to find the square root of an number using a scientific calculator but my scientific calculator DOES not have that radical sign?
Enter the number you wish to find the square root of, and then raise it to the power of one-half. x^0.5 = sqrt(x)
How do you raise a number to a power?
#include <math.h> and link to the math library, then you can use pow(base, exponent).
If you have -2 and you square it do you have 4 or -4?
(-2)2 = (-2)(-2) = 4 (when we raise a negative number to an even power, the result is always positive) (-2)3 = (-2)(-2)(-2) = -8 (when we raise a negative number to an odd power, the result is always negative) (-3)4 = 81 (-3)5 = -243
Why can't a polynomial contain a variable raised to a negative power?
because you cant raise a number negatively exponentially
Can you raise a number to a power on a 4 function calculator?
Yes, most 4-function calculators have a power or exponent button denoted by a "^" symbol. You can use this button to raise a number to a power.
What is negative three fourth to the power of negative 1?
To raise something by the power of negative one, take the reciprocal of the number. In this instance, -3/4-1 = -4/3 or negative four thirds. Expressed as a decimal, this is equal to -1.3 recurring (that is, -1.3333...)
-5 to power of -2?
-3
How do you perform 2x plus 2y and raise the whole thing to the negative one?
The answer to your question is (2x + 2y)^-1 = 1/(2x + 2y)^1. When you raise a number to a negative power, you can rewrite it by dividing one by the original number with the negative sign dropped from the exponent. Because the power here is 1, you can rewrite the answer again to 1/(2x + 2y) since any number raised to the power of 1 is simply the number itself. You can't add 2x and 2y because they are two different variables.
