Step  5  :

5.1   Negative number raised to an even power is positive  

For example let's look at (-7)6 , where (-7) , a negative number, is raised to 6 , an even exponent :

(-7)6 can be written as (-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)

Now, using the rule that says minus times minus is plus, (-7)6 can be written as (49)•(49)•(49) which in turn can be written as (7)•(7)•(7)•(7)•(7)•(7) or 76 which is positive.

We proved that (-7)6 is equal to (7)6 which is a positive number

Using the same arguments as above, replacing (-7) by any negative number, and replacing the exponent 6 by any even exponent, we proved which had to be proved
