Simplifying exponents Negative exponents get moved to the opposite side of the fraction constants stay and variables are brought with the exponent once the exponent is moved it is no longer negative. Example: -2 -2x +3 2x Example: = 3x+4² 2x²-2² Example: -2 +3 = 2x² (3x4) x² 2x+x² = 3x + x² 2+4² 2² When multiplying two numbers or terms (Must be like terms) we add the exponents When dividing numbers and terms we subtract the exponents 1 2x+x² = 6x6 X2 3x+x² 14 Example: x4 (3x²) +6y_ 3x6 +by у-хи у-хи = 6x4 -=-3x² +6
