If you divide two common bases, you can subtract their exponents as an equivalent operation.
They are like terms.
the exponent is a negative
It is simplification.

The like term for (5x^2) is any term that contains the variable (x) raised to the same power of 2. An example of a like term would be (3x^2) or (-7x^2). Like terms can be combined through addition or subtraction because they share the same variable and exponent.

Half of 2x squared is x squared. To find half of a term, you divide the coefficient by 2 and keep the variable and exponent the same. In this case, half of 2 is 1, so the expression simplifies to x squared.
the variable's exponent

The definition of the term 'exponent' is a person who supports or advocates. Some synonyms for the word are champion, defender, proponent, protagonist, second, supporter and spokesperson.
Not true. The expansion will have one more term.

Not necessarily. Every exponent in the exponent must be a non-negative integer. This is not what you have specified. For example, if n = 3.5, it is not a term in a polynomial expression.
The base number is the the number that is being repeatedlymultiplied in exponent problems. Example: 32 _ three is the base and two is the exponent
