Negative or positive exponents are related by fractions.
For example, if we have a number that is raised to a negative exponent, we can write the number as the quotient between 1 and the same number raised to a positive exponent.
We have then:
[tex] a^{-b} = \frac{1}{a^b} [/tex]
Answer:
negative exponents and positive exponents are related by fractions:
[tex] a^{-b} = \frac{1}{a^b} [/tex]
