Monomials can have negative exponents, if the term for the exponent is not a variable, but if it is a variable with a negative exponent, the whole expression will not be classified. This is so because the definition of a monomial states that, a monomial can be a product of a number and one or more variables with positive integer exponents. I hope that answered your question!
Negative exponents are used to represent 1 divided by an a base to a specific exponent.

Exponents that are NOT a negative exponent therefore they are mostly whole numbers kind of:)
Both are used to make recipecalls.
The same way you divide positive exponents like ( x^-7 ) / ( x^-12) = x^( -7 - - 12) = x^( -7+12) = x^5
kahit ano sagot
Yes, monomials are a specific type of polynomial. A monomial is a polynomial that consists of only one term, which can include variables raised to non-negative integer exponents and coefficients. In contrast, a polynomial can have multiple terms, such as binomials (two terms) or trinomials (three terms). Therefore, all monomials are polynomials, but not all polynomials are monomials.
A polynomial is the sum of one or more terms (monomials). (poly implies many)x2 + 2x, 3x3 + x² + 5x +6, 4x - 6y + 8 A monomial is a single-term algeabric expression. A monomoial is the product of real numbers and variables with non-negative integer powers. Consequently, a monomial has NO variable in its denominator. It has one term. (mono implies one)13, 3x, -57, x², 4y², -2xy, or 520x²y²(notice: no negative exponents, no fractional exponents)*there are also binomials and trinomials
A polynomial.
You can have negative exponents anywhere. When they are in the denominator, they are equivalent to positive exponents in the numerator of a fraction.
An exponent is the raised "mini number" above another one that tells you how many times that number must be multiplied with itself. They are closely linked to monomials. Here is a website with lessons on exponents and it even delves into monomials! It contains some worksheets to help you further understand! http://www.algebra-class.com/exponents-lesson.html

Divide coefficients and subtract exponents of the same variable. EX: (20 x6) / (4 x2) = 5 x4
why the exponents can not be negative
In mathematics, a polynomial is a finite expression made up of variables and constants, by using the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication. The other requirement is the the exponents bet non-negative whole number.A polynomial is the sum of two or more monomials. That is why a monomial is not a polynomial.
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
