[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf{Nope}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbb{SOLUTION:}[/tex]
Hi! Hope you are having a nice day!
Recall the Properties of Exponents:
[tex]\rm{a^{-b}=\displaystyle\frac{1}{a^b}[/tex]
Let's use this property to solve:
[tex]\rm{x^{-1}[/tex]
According to the property, we should flop the number over:
[tex]\rm{\displaystyle\frac{1}{x^1}[/tex]
Is that equal to [tex]\displaystyle\frac{-2}{x}[/tex]?
No.
Hope you could comprehend everything.
