Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
What does it mean when an exponent is a negative number?
A negative exponent is the reciprocal of the corresponding positive exponent. 102 = 100 10-2 = 1/100
Why do you move a negative exponent to the other side of the fraction?
This is a procedure used to help people who are new to negative exponents. A negative exponent, when moved to the other side of the fraction, becomes a positive exponent and beginners are more comfortable with working with positive fractions.
What is a negative exponent?
When you have a number raised to a negative exponent, you move to the left rather than the right in decimal places. E.g. 103 = 1000 10-3 = 0.001 More specifically, when you have a negative exponent, you are taking the reciprocal of what the positive exponent would give. 24 = 16, but 2-4=(1/16) ■
What is x to the negative 7th power?
When a number is raised to a negative exponent, it is equivalent to its reciprocal raised to the positive exponent. Therefore, x to the power of -7 is equal to 1 divided by x to the power of 7, or 1/x^7.
What is the Meaning of zero negative exponent?

What is the meaning of a zero exponent and the meaning of a negative exponent?
The zero exponent rule basically says that any base with an exponent of zero is equal to one. For example: x^0 = 1A negative exponent is equivalent to 1 over a positive exponent.x^1 = x x^0 = 1x^-1 = 1/x
Where is the negative exponent key on a calculator?
negative 4 with negative 3 as an exponent
What does the term negative exponent mean in math?
the exponent is a negative
Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
What is meaning of exponent with variable?
That you have an exponential function. These functions are typical for certain practical problems, such as population growth, or radioactive decay (with a negative exponent in this case).
How do you raise anumber to a negative exponent?
A number to a negative exponent is the inverse of the number to the positive exponent. That is, x-a = 1/xa
What repeated operation does anegative exponent show?
A negative exponent indicates repeated division of a number by itself. Specifically, ( a^{-n} ) is equivalent to ( \frac{1}{a^n} ), meaning you take the reciprocal of the base raised to the positive exponent. This operation reflects the concept that negative exponents represent the inverse of the base raised to the corresponding positive exponent.
What does it mean when an exponent is a negative number?
A negative exponent is the reciprocal of the corresponding positive exponent. 102 = 100 10-2 = 1/100
What do you do when multiplying a positive exponent by a negative exponent?
Example: (4x)-2 The answer to this would be 1/ 16x2. Multiply it out as if the negative exponent was not there ((4x)2), then that will be the denominator of the fraction. The numerator is one.
What is the negative exponent law?
If you have a negative exponent, then put 1/the number multiplied by itself the number of times of the exponent. For example: 3-2=1/(3x3)=1/9
Is a number raised to a negative exponent greater than 1?
No, a number raised to a negative exponent is less than 1. When a number is raised to a negative exponent, it is inverted and the exponent becomes positive. This means that the value of the number decreases as the exponent becomes more negative.
