Meanning of positive exponent?

An exponent is the power that a number is raised to. For instance, in the expression 3^2 ("three squared"), 2 is the "exponent" and 3 is the "base." A positive exponent just means that the power is a positive number. For instance, the following expression does not involve a positive exponent: 3^(-2). Horses rule!!!!!

How do you solve when you have a negative exponent?

A negative exponent is the same as 1/(the positive exponent). For example, 2^3 is (2*2*2) = 8. 2^(-3) is 1/(2*2*2) = 1/8. So, just calculate the positive exponent version, and put it under 1.


When is the exponent positive?

When the number is very large 1.0 x 10^6 is 1 million.


What should you do to make a negative exponent positive in a reciprocal way?

An expression with a negative exponent is equivalent to the positive exponent of its reciprocal. Thus, 3-4 = 1/34 or, equivalently, (1/3)4 or (3/4)-2 = (4/3)2


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 is a positive exponent?

An exponent that is a positive integer. For example, x3 has a positive exponent, while 8-5 does not.

How can you. Evaluate a nonzero number with a negative integer exponent?

To evaluate a nonzero number with a negative integer exponent, you can use the rule that states ( a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} ), where ( a ) is the nonzero number and ( n ) is the positive integer. For example, ( 2^{-3} ) can be evaluated as ( \frac{1}{2^3} = \frac{1}{8} ). This method effectively converts the negative exponent into a positive one by taking the reciprocal of the base raised to the corresponding positive exponent.


What is negative exponent?

It's a number up and just to the right of the bigger first number. If its. 3 2 Then you multiply it like 2 times 2times 2 With negative exponent you switch it from negative to positive every other one starting with negative. We do this because a negative and a negative multiplied together equal a positive and a positive times a negative is negative. -123771


How do you turn a negative exponent into a positive exponent?

Move the base number to the 'other side" of a division bar and change the exponent to the opposite sign. Example: 1/9 = 3^-2 becomes 1/(3^2) or 4 = 1/ (2^-2) becomes 2^2. Try it on your calculator to check your work.
