This math topic involves solving problems related to the difference and sum of exponential terms of variables, then dividing by the smaller exponent and solving for the variable without a calculator. Each problem presents an equation with the variable in an exponential form set equal to a numerical value, challenging skills in polynomial algebra and exponent manipulation. This topic is advanced, focusing on solving polynomial and quadratic equations, especially dealing with exponents in algebraic expressions.
