George Lynn · Answer 1

With negative exponents you make it a fraction.

For example with your equation it would be

1/2^7<2

So basically you just flip the fraction to cancel out the negative then you can continue to solve.

You would combine like terms, combine 2 too 2 and 2 too - 7 it should be 4 - 14
