So 16=4 or -4 b/c both (4)^2 and (-4)^2=16 you cannot add these unless they have a common root. so 2+2=2 but 2+3 doesn't equal 5. To multiply and divide just treat them as regular integers: 6x3=18 or 3/2 basically they're subject to the same rules as

5. Washing my car in the winter is not as easy as it is in the summer.

6. Adding and subtracting exponents
The number you are dividing another number into
Itself 5^1=5
Make sure that the bases are the same. To multiply - add the exponents and multiply the coefficients - and to divide - subtract the exponents and divide the coefficients - 3x^25x^3=15x^5 and 15x^6/3x^2=5x^4
To add and subtract exponents - both the base and the power must be the same. If they are - just add or subtract as you normally would. So - 3x^2+5x^2=8x^2


7. A # is divisble by 4 if

Simply tells you to 'multiply this number x times.' So 2^3= 2x2x2 or 8. The number you multiply is called the base and the little superscript number that tells you how many times to multiply the base is called an exponent or a power. So in 3^2 - 3 is
The last two digits - considered as a number - are divisible by 4. Example - Take 728. The last two digits form the number 28 - which is divisble by 4.
