To rewrite with a negative exponent, reverse the fraction and change the exponent to a negative value:
Reversing 1/8 would be 8/1, which equals 8 and the exponent would become -2
The answer is 8^-2
Irrational. pi is an irrational number.
Understand subtraction of rational numbers as adding the additive inverse, p - q = p + (-q). Show that the distance between two rational numbers on the number line is the absolute value of their difference, and apply this principle in real-world contexts.
