Well negative exponents you use as normal like a negative and do normal mathfor example:
x to the power of -5 + x to the power of -3
you know you its like -5+-3 but in exponent form so you do normal math
-5+-3=-8
but with zero exponents any variable or number with a zero exponent equals 1 for example:
6 to the power of 0 = 1

Prove or disprove that the circle with equation x^2-4x+y^2=-3 intersects the y axis

wel

The general equation given is x^2 - 4x + y^2 = -3. Transform this to an equation of a circle of the form x^2 + y^2 = r^2.

Use completing the square method:

x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 = -3 + 4
(x - 2)^2 + y^2 = 1

the center of the circle is (2,0) and r = 1

To check if it intersects the y axis, find the value of the x-intercept.

Ve the equation. 3c + 1 = c +1

yKpoI14uk [10]

Subtract C in both sides:
2c + 1 = 1

Subtract 1 on both sides
2c = 0

The solution is:
x = 0

Hope this helped
