Degree of a Polynomial
The exponents are added.
Multiply-Add Divide-Subtract Power-MultiplyIt's the rule for exponents.If the bases are the same and they're...- multiplied; add the exponents. 22(23) = 25- divided; subtract the exponents (36/34) = 32- raised to a power; multiply the exponents (42)4 = 48
You can have negative exponents anywhere. When they are in the denominator, they are equivalent to positive exponents in the numerator of a fraction.

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.
The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents on the variables.
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.

Exponents can simplify very ugly math problems and their relation to logarithms makes them invaluable. FYI logarithms were invented before exponents.
power in a math term is when you multiply the exponents
Degree of a Polynomial
The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents in the term. For example, in the term 3x4y5n2 the degree is 11.
They are known as like terms.
If you divide two common bases, you can subtract their exponents as an equivalent operation.
Polynomial
Bill Thomas invented the term Rube Goldberg.
