Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to use the following formula here-

[tex]a^{-m}= \frac{1}{a^{m}}[/tex]

Now, here we get,

[tex]2^{-2}[/tex]

So, applying the formula we get

[tex]2^{-2}= \frac{1}{2^{2}}= \frac{1}{4} =0.25[/tex]


So, the answer is     0.25

[tex]2^{-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

using the law of exponents

[tex]a^{-m}[/tex] ⇔ [tex]\frac{1}{}a^{m}[/tex]

[tex]2^{-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{}2^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
