Remember that in general, a^(-b) means 1 / (a^b). So this is 1 / (-3)^4. Since -3 * -3 * -3 * -3 gives us 81, the answer is 1/81.
neg exponents are flipped into the denominator or the numerator if in the denominator
(–3)^–4 = (–3 x –3 x –3 x –3)^–1 = (81)^–1 = 1/81
Yes
(-3)^-4= 1/(-3)^4= 1/81
Yep
1/-3^4
1/81
Correct ... a negative exponent indicates a reciprocal.
For example, (- 3)^- 1 = - 1/3
Remember, a negative number raised to an even power is positive; a negative number raised to an odd power is odd.
(- 3)^ -4
(- 1/3)(- 1/3)(- 1/3)(- 1/3) = 1/81
And ...
(- 3)^4 = 81
Hope that helps, good luck.
