Who invented the term exponents?

If two exponents have the same factor or base what happens to the exponents when the exponents are multipled?
The exponents are added.
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.
When multiplying 2 or more variables with exponents what do you do with the exponents?
You add the exponents- x^2*x^6=x^8
How do you solve exponents?

How did Archimedes introduce exponents?
Archimedes is said to have invented exponents to express very large numbers. A passage from The Sand Reckoner is offered as evidence. To say that he invented exponents is a stretch of the facts; but he was aware of the concepts involved.
How do exponents help in math?
Exponents can simplify very ugly math problems and their relation to logarithms makes them invaluable. FYI logarithms were invented before exponents.
Why the properties using zero exponents and negative exponents specify that the bases be nonzero numbers?
Because the expressions are undefined for base = 0.
How are the properties of exponents and logarithms related?
Exponents and Logarithms work well together because they "undo" each other (so long as the base "a" is the same).
Which of the two Properties of Exponents require that the base of the exponent be the same in order to use that property?
i don no:(
Why do you subtract exponents when you dividing powers?
When dividing powers with the same base, you subtract the exponents to simplify the expression based on the properties of exponents. This is derived from the definition of exponents, where dividing (a^m) by (a^n) (both with the same base (a)) can be thought of as removing (n) factors of (a) from (m) factors of (a), resulting in (a^{m-n}). This rule helps maintain consistency and simplifies calculations involving powers.
Why was the triangle invented?
The triangle was not invented. It is the result of observations of physical properties.
If two exponents have the same factor or base what happens to the exponents when the exponents are multipled?
The exponents are added.
When adding numbers with exponents do you add or subtract the exponents?
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..
When adding numbers with fraction exponents do you add the exponents?
Fractional exponents follow the same rules as integral exponents. Integral exponents are numbers raised to an integer power.
