Polynomial
It means that it has constants and variables that has a form of something like 7x2+2x+5 or something like that. Variables can not be used as exponents though, and exponents have to be whole numbers. Also, variables can not be a denominator.
A number and a variable multiplied together, separated by addition and subtraction, is called a polynomial. In a polynomial, the variables can have non-negative integer exponents, and the coefficients can be any real numbers. For example, (3x^2 + 4x - 5) is a polynomial.
A number is a specific value or quantity, while a variable represents an unknown or changing quantity, often denoted by letters like x or y. A product of numbers and variables raised to natural number powers is referred to as a polynomial. Polynomials consist of terms that can include constants (numbers), variables, and exponents that are whole numbers (non-negative integers). For example, (3x^2 + 2x + 1) is a polynomial where (3), (2), and (1) are coefficients, and (x) is the variable raised to the powers of 2 and 1.
A polynomial.
Polynomials and nonpolynomial expressions both represent mathematical functions and can be used to model relationships between variables. They share the property of being defined over real or complex numbers, and both can appear in equations and inequalities. However, polynomials consist solely of non-negative integer exponents on their variables, while nonpolynomials may include variables raised to fractional or negative exponents, transcendental functions, or other forms that do not fit the polynomial criteria.

If the base numbers or variables are the same, you add the exponents.
A polynomial is any number of the form Ax^n + Bx^n-1 + ... + c. So, multiplying numbers with exponents with any other numbers with exponents in polynomials only results in another, larger polynomial. Since this is multiplication, you could call the resultant polynomial a product.

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..
A polynomial is any expression (i.e. no = sign) that is the sum of several monomials. Subtraction is ok, but to be a polynomial they can't be divided, and they can't be multiplied with parentheses. Polynomials: 5x+4xy; x2+3x-2; 42x-1. Not Polynomials: (10x)/2+4xy; x(x+3); 45. ---- A monomial is one or more numbers or variables multiplied together. For example, 5x, 23, x2, and 4a3b are monomials. The exponents must be natural numbers.
Example: 3x4y2 and 9x3y5 Treat the whole numbers normally. The LCM of 3 and 9 is 9. Choose the highest value of the variables. In this case, the LCM is 9x4y5
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.
All numbers can be expressed using exponents.
Example: 3x4y2 and 9x3y5 Treat the whole numbers normally. The LCM of 3 and 9 is 9. Choose the highest value of the variables. In this case, the LCM is 9x4y5
For the greatest common factor, you check which variables appear in each of the expressions. In the case of exponents, you take the lowest exponent for each variable. For the least common multiple, you take each variable, whether it appears in all of the expressions involved, or only in some of them. In the case of the exponents, you take the greatest exponent for each variable. If there are numeric coefficients (numbers as products), you take either the gcf or the lcm of those in the usual way.
Numbers written without exponents are called Standard Form.
