An exponential expression with a negative base is written with parentheses around the base, such asTo evaluate we have:If no parentheses are present, the expressionis the opposite of or equivalently,

Assume that b is a real number and that m and n represent positive integers. Then,
Given multiplication of the same base, keep the base, and add the exponents
PROPERTY Division of Like Bases

Assume that is a real number and that m and n represent positive integers. Then,
Given division of the same base, keep the base, and subtract the exponents.
