A French Mathematician named Rene Decartes came up with the idea of exponents.
All the powers and exponents of 1 are 1.The powers and exponents of any of the other numbers up to 10 are equivalent to the all the positive numbers - rational and irrational.
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..
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.

You sure can, here is an example I made up to show you: x4+x2= x2(x2+x) When you factor it out it should look like this because if you multiply it back up (where the exponents will multiply not add) it will equal the primary equation.
All the powers and exponents of 1 are 1.The powers and exponents of any of the other numbers up to 10 are equivalent to the all the positive numbers - rational and irrational.
The exponents are added.
Add them up providing that the bases are the same.

His name was Edvard Larouge. He made up his exponent theory in 1863 when he had to keep multiplying the same numbers over and over agin because he was a banker.
When I use ^ that means to raise it up as an exponent.70=2x5x7The only exponents are to the first power and we usually don't write those.
Add the exponents
The laws of exponents work the same with rational exponents, the difference being they use fractions not integers.
In algebraic equations, exponents can contain variables. They can be solved for by using logarithmic rules for exponents.
