−(−1)100=
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the expression −(−1)100.
- Step 1: Assess the exponent in (−1)100. Since 100 is an even number, the property of powers of −1 tells us that (−1)100=1.
- Step 2: Now, consider the entire expression. We have an outer negation: −(+1). Arithmetic operation of negation results in −1.
Therefore, the solution to the problem is −1.
