Will give brainliest!!! How would (512x^6 y^14 + x^6 y^14) turn into 513 x^6 y^14 why are you adding a 1 to 512? Aren't you supposed to just keep the base? Please explain.
Because they have like-exponents (the exponents of the x is the same number, x^6) you can treat both values sort of like whole numbers. 512x^16 + 1x^16 making it 513x^16. Same thing with the y, it should be 1y^14+ 1y^14 = 2y^14
