An exponent is the power that a number is raised to. For instance, in the expression 3^2 ("three squared"), 2 is the "exponent" and 3 is the "base." A positive exponent just means that the power is a positive number. For instance, the following expression does not involve a positive exponent: 3^(-2). Horses rule!!!!!

How can an expression with a negative exponent be changed into one with a positive exponent?
Say it with a lot of sarcasm.
Some of the numbers in scientific notation have a negative exponent and some have a positive exponent. Explain the difference between these tow types of numbers.?
The mantissa is multiplied by 10 raised to the power as shown by the exponent. So, if the exponent is 4, then you multiply the mantissa by 10^4 = 10,000. If the exponent is -4 then you multiply the mantissa by 10^(-4) = 0.0001 or, equivalently, divide by 10^4.
