Answer:Thus,  (-3)-4 = 1/(-3)4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative exponents have the following property:   n-m = 1/nm   OR   1/n-m = nm

So for  (-3)-4 ,  n= -3 and -m= -4 (or m= 4).

Thus,  (-3)-4 = 1/(-3)4.

sleet_krkn [62]

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The other number is 2 if the given number is 15.
