If you mean scientific notation, you must first convert the numbers so they have the same exponent. Example: 2 x 107 + 5 x 106 = 20 x 106 + 5 x 106 = 25 x 106. (You can also convert both numbers to 107 in this case).

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.
When adding or subtracting numbers written in scientific notation the exponents must be the?
Same.
When subtracting or adding numbers in scientific notation why do the exponents need to be the same?
This is effectively the same as lining up the decimal points when adding or subtracting ordinary decimal fractions.
Is this equation linear or nonlinear x plus y equals 4?
It is linear because you're just adding numbers. There are no exponents.

In a miltiplacation problem do you times the exponents?
In a multiplication problem with exponents, one should not multiple the exponents. Rather, it would be correct to multiply the numbers while adding the exponents together.

What are the rules adding and subtracting exponents?
When multiplying something with exponents, you add it. When dividing something with exponents, you subtract it.

The numbers that are expressed using exponents?
All numbers can be expressed using exponents.
What do you do with the exponents when your adding the bases of the number?
nothing, keep the exponents the same, remember you can only add or subtract when the exponents are the same
Why do you need to rewrite the given scientific notation in the same power of 10?
If you are adding or subtracting two numbers in scientific notation the exponents must be the same before adding the coefficients. This is similar to 'like terms' in algebraic expressions. You can't add 5x3 and 3x2 because the exponents are not the same.
What are Numbers written without exponents?
Numbers written without exponents are called Standard Form.
Can you predict the number of factors of any number by writing the prime factorization using exponents then adding one to the exponent and then finding the products of these numbers?
Yes.
