Is a positive integer raised to a negative power always positive
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Many students gets confused with these exponential problems, they often get misguided but understand that there is nothing to be confused of.

When you have a negative number, you just take the reciprocal of the whole exponent number.

What is a reciprocal?

Let's take an integer for example, let's take the number 3.

The reciprocal for 3 is (1/3)

Let's take an other number, let's take 2/3

The reciprocal for 2/3 is (3/2)

In conclusion, we just reverse the denominator and the numerator or just switch it.

We take 3 as (3/1) and that is the reason, the reciprocal would be (1/3)

Now, coming to the negative integers. Taking an example:

(2)⁻¹

This would be become (1/2¹) = (1/2)

Hence, the result of a negative integer is positive but would be a fraction.

Hope I helped!

I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!! PLEASE HELP!!!<br> Find the areas of the trapezoids.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

A = 12 units ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the trapezoid is found by

A = 1/2 (b1+b2)h

b1 = 2

b2 = 4

h = 4

I found these by looking at the graph

A = 1/2(2+4) 4

A = 1/2(6*4)

A = 12 units ^2

2x^{2} +4x+1=0 <br> Solve for x.
Viefleur [7K]
2x^2 + 4x + 1 = 0

2x^2 + 4x + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1

2x^2 + 4x = -1

X(2x + 4) = -1

X = -1.

2x + 4 = -1
2x + 4 - 4 = -1 - 4
2x = -5
2x/2 = -5/2
X = -5/2.

I believe these are the solutions. If not you can use the quadratic formula to solve for the roots, solutions.
