(i) 3-2
3-2
\(= \frac{1 }{3^2} = \frac{1}{9}\ [a^{-m} = \frac{1 }{ a^m}]\)
(ii) (-4)-2
(-4)-2 = \(\frac{1 }{ (-4)^{2}} \ [a^{-m} = \frac{1 }{ a^m}]\)
\(= \frac{1 }{ (-4 × -4)}\)
\(= \frac{1 }{ 16}\)
(iii) \((\frac{1}{2})^{-5}\)
\((\frac{1}{2})^{-5} = 25 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 32\ [a^{-m} = \frac{1 }{ a^m}]\)
