By what number should (–15)–1 be divided so that quotient may be equal to (–15)–1?

उत्तर
Let (–15)–1 be divided by x to get quotient (–15)–1.
So, `(-15)^-1/x = (-15)^-1`
⇒ `(-15)^-1/(-15)^-1 = x`
⇒ x = (–15)–1 + 1 ...[∵ am + an = (a)m – n]
⇒ x = (–15)0 = 1 ...[∵ a0 = 1]

An insect is on the 0 point of a number line, hopping towards 1. She covers half the distance from her current location to 1 with each hop. So, she will be at `1/2` after one hop, `3/4` after two hops, and so on.

- Make a table showing the insect’s location for the first 10 hops.
- Where will the insect be after n hops?
- Will the insect ever get to 1? Explain.
