You keep them the same if they have different bases
Yes, the product of two polynomials will always be a polynomial. When you multiply two polynomials, the result is obtained by distributing each term of the first polynomial to each term of the second, which involves adding the exponents of like terms. This process results in a new polynomial that follows the standard form, consisting of terms with non-negative integer exponents. Thus, the product maintains the characteristics of a polynomial.
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..
Adding polynomials involves combining like terms by summing their coefficients, resulting in a polynomial of the same degree. In contrast, multiplying polynomials requires applying the distributive property (or FOIL for binomials), which results in a polynomial whose degree is the sum of the degrees of the multiplied polynomials. Essentially, addition preserves the degree of the polynomials, while multiplication can increase it.
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.
nothing, keep the exponents the same, remember you can only add or subtract when the exponents are the same

Nothing. The exponents are not affected when added polynomials. However, they play a role in which variables add or subtract another variable. For example. (3x^2+5x-6)+(4x^2-3x+4) The exponents would determine that when adding these polynomials that 3x^2 would be added to 4x^2 and so forth 5x-3x and finally -6 would be added to 4. With a final conclusion of (7x^2+2x-2)

Adding and subtracting polynomials is simply the adding and subtracting of their like terms.

Add them up providing that the bases are the same.
The definition for polynomials is very restrictive. This is because it will give more information. It excludes radicals, negative exponents, and fractional exponents. When these are included, the expression becomes rational and not polynomial.
The numbers can have a positive or negative sign.
When multiplying something with exponents, you add it. When dividing something with exponents, you subtract it.
