Answer:

We can say that
(-1)^x is positive, when x is even positive number.

Explanation:

A negative number raised to an even power will always produce a positive result.

Like
(-1)^(2) =1


(-1)^(4) =1


(-1)^(10) =1

We can say that
(-1)^x is positive, when x is even positive number.

(-1)^4 = 1

Because negative 1 raised to an even exponent results in a positive number.
