When adding polynomials what do you do to the exponents?
You keep them the same if they have different bases
The exponents in the terms of a polynomial must be?
why the exponents can not be negative
When multiplying binomials that turn out negative do you add or subtract exponents?
When multiplying numbers with exponents, you add the exponents.
What is the math definition of Negative Exponent Property?
property of negative exponents
How to solve integer exponents?
Positive exponents: an = a*a*a*...*a where there are n (>0) lots of a. Negative exponents: a-n = 1/(a*a*a*...*a) where there are n (>0) lots of a.
Why do you think the definition for polynomials is so restrictive?
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.
Do all polynomials have exponents?
Yes.
How do you make working model of maths on polynomials?
Polynomials are the simplest class of mathematical expressions. The expression is constructed from variables and constants, using only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and non-negative integer exponents.
Polynomials are written with the exponents of the terms in order?
descending
When adding polynomials what do you do to the exponents?
You keep them the same if they have different bases
Polynomials are written with the exponents of the terms in what type of order?
descending form
When you multiply polynomials what do you do with the exponents?
Add them up providing that the bases are the same.
Is negative integers are polynomials?
No.
When can you say that the term is a term of polynomials?
If a term consists of one or more of: a numerical coefficientnon-negative integer exponents of variable(s),then it is a term of a polynomial. If a term consists of one or more of: a numerical coefficientnon-negative integer exponents of variable(s),then it is a term of a polynomial. If a term consists of one or more of: a numerical coefficientnon-negative integer exponents of variable(s),then it is a term of a polynomial. If a term consists of one or more of: a numerical coefficientnon-negative integer exponents of variable(s),then it is a term of a polynomial.
Can you have negative exponents in the denominator?
You can have negative exponents anywhere. When they are in the denominator, they are equivalent to positive exponents in the numerator of a fraction.
Can a polynomial have a negative exponent?
Polynomials cannot have negative exponent.
When you add polynomials what do you do with your exponents?
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)
