the unknowns must be the same variable and the exponents have to be the same.
examples)
x4 + y4 cannot be added because they are not the same variable.
x3 + x2 cannot be added because they have different exponents.
3y6 + 5y6 can be added because they have the same variable and exponents.
(answer: 8y6)
2X * 2X * 2X * 2X5 multiply the coefficients together and add the exponents = 168 ---------

You add exponents when multiplying. Ex: (xm) × (xn) = xm+n
You cannot ad or subtract variables with different exponents: the exponents must be the same. The coefficients are added or subtracted and the exponent of the answer is the common exponent. (The rules are similar to those for the denominators of fractions.)Thus 2x^2 + 5x^3 cannot be combined into a single term.while 2x^2 + 5x^2 = (2+5)*x^2 = 7x^2
If you are multiplying numbers with exponents, and the base is the same, you can just add exponents. For example, 104 x 105 = 109.
Just multiply the coefficients, leave the variable the same, and add the exponents.
2X * 2X * 2X * 2X5 multiply the coefficients together and add the exponents = 168 ---------

Do you mean? 4r2 * 3r2 = 12r4 ====== You multiply the coefficients of the variable terms and add the exponents.
X2 * 2X= 2X3======multiply coefficients and add exponents ( all variables have a 1 as implied exponent )
9Y^4 * Y^5 add exponents and coefficients multiplied 9Y^9
you do not do anything when you add numbers with exponents. you just figure out the answer. it is only if you multiply numbers with exponents, where you add the exponents..
The coefficients and constant in one of the equations are a multiple of the corresponding coefficients and constant in the other equation.
Add the exponents
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
Just add the exponents. In this case you get 515.Just add the exponents. In this case you get 515.Just add the exponents. In this case you get 515.Just add the exponents. In this case you get 515.
