Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
How do you change negative exponets to positive exponents?
A negative exponent of a number is the same as the reciprocal of that same number to the equivalent positive exponent.EXAMPLE : 2-3 = 1/23When multiplying powers of the same base the rule is, addthe exponents.So, if the initial exponent is negative then the number has to be multiplied by a power of that number with an equivalent positive exponent greater than the negative exponent.EXAMPLE : 2-3 x 25 = 2(-3+5) = 22 (As 5 > l3l then the resultant exponent is positive)
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 is the meaning of negative exponent?
A negative exponent implies a reciprocal.Thus x^-a = 1/x^a or, equivalently, (1/x)^a
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 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
Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
What does the term negative exponent mean in math?
the exponent is a negative
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 is the exponent of rule by the mob?
Ochlocrat
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.
