Working with Negative and Zero Exponents

There are two important points to remember when doing problems from this section:

1.) Any base to the zero power is 1
2.) Any base to a negative power is the same as the reciprocal of the base to the positive power.

Be sure to read over section 8.2 in your book before attempting to do tonight's assignment, especially if you missed class today.
