You would subtract the exponents. For instance, when solving (x-3)5/(x-3)2, you would find an answer of (x-3)3.
Add your answer:
When multiplying terms with the same base you do what to the exponents?
Sum the exponents.
When dividing two numbers with the same base?
i guess u subtract the exponents
How do you simplify exponents or powers in algebra?
When multiplying exponents with the same base add them: x^3*x^2 = x^5 When dividing exponents with the same base subtract them: x^3/x^2 = x^1 or x
Terms with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
like terms
What is terms with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
like terms
What is the general rule for dividing exponents with the same base?
It is the base raised to the exponent used in the numerator minus the exponent for the denominator. That is, a^x / a^y = a^(x-y)
If two exponents have the same factor or base what happens to the exponents when the exponents are multipled?
The exponents are added.
What is the quotients rule of exponents in Algebra?
when dividing the same variable or constant with exponents, subtract the exponents. EX: x6 / x4 = x2
Why does the base of exponents has to be the same?
it doesn't
How do you divide a exponent?
If you have the same base on both of the exponents that you are dividing, all you have to do is subtract the exponent. For example if I have a problem like: 66/ 63, your answer will be 63.
What is 10 to the fourth power multiplied by 10 to the seventh power?
10^4 * 10^7 = 10^11 When multiplying exponents with the same base (in this case, 10), you add the exponents (4+7). If you were dividing, you'd subtract the exponents.
What are terms that include the same variables and their corresponding exponents?
like terms
How are exponents and powers different?
They are not. Exponents, powers and indices are terms used for the same thing.
Algebraic terms that contain the same variables and exponents?
are known as like terms.
What is the definition of dissimilar terms in algebra?
dissimilar terms are terms that do not have the same variable or the variable do not contain the same number of exponents
When multiplying variables with the same base what do you do with the exponents?
You add them.
When do add exponents?
when you multiply powers with the same base.
What is a term with the same variables raised to the same exponents?
They are known as like terms.
What is the Quotient rule of exponents in algebra?
The quotient rule of exponents in Algebra states that dividing expressions with the same base you subtract the exponents. However, the base cannot be equal to zero.The above statement follows this rule in Algebra:xm/xn = xm-n;x cannot equal 0Here's an example:x15/x5 = x15-5 = x10
Why don't we change the exponents during like terms?
Exponents are higher in priority in terms of the order of operations, and do not combine in the same way as you would simple add/subtract/multiply/divide. So, if you have: 26 + 24 This is a polynomial in base 2 with different powers. It would be this in binary: 1010000 ...which would not be the same as 210: 1000000000 In order to be able to change exponents, you have to be multiplying factors using the same base, as in: 26 * 24 = 210 ...because the exponents are also indicating how many times you are multiplying each base by itself, and multiplication is the same as the basal function of the exponent (repeated multiplication).
What you do with the exponents when you you are multiplying?
If you are multiplying numbers with exponents, and the base is the same, you can just add exponents. For example, 104 x 105 = 109.
Multiply and simplify 5 to the 9th power X 5 to the 7th power?
Since the base is the same, just add the exponents. 59 x 57 = 516.Since the base is the same, just add the exponents. 59 x 57 = 516.Since the base is the same, just add the exponents. 59 x 57 = 516.Since the base is the same, just add the exponents. 59 x 57 = 516.
Is x and y like terms?
No. For purposes of combining "like terms", you need terms that have exactly the same variables, with the same exponents (if there are any).
When multiplying a number exponents that are squared do you add or multiply?
If the base numbers or variables are the same, you add the exponents.
How do you subtract like variables with different exponents?
You can't. You can only subtract like terms. Like terms must have exactly the same variables and exponents on the variables.
