Question

Match the following items by evaluating the expression for x = -2.

x -2^

x -1^

x 0^

x 1^

x 2^

Answer 1

x^0 is 1 for any x (even when x=0, on some level). So (-2)^0=0

(-2)^(-2)= 1/(-2)²=1/4
(-2)^(-1)=1/(-2)¹ = -1/2
(-2)¹ = -2
(-2)² = 4

Answer 2

Don't really get the word match in your question.
