1. The problem is to understand how to order terms by their exponents from biggest to smallest. 2. When dealing with expressions involving exponents, the exponent indicates the power to which the base is raised. 3. To order terms from biggest exponent to smallest, compare the exponents numerically. 4. For example, given terms $x^5$, $x^3$, and $x^7$, the order from biggest to smallest exponent is $x^7$, $x^5$, $x^3$. 5. This ordering helps in simplifying expressions, factoring, or arranging polynomials in standard form. 6. Remember, the base does not affect the order when bases are the same; only the exponent matters. 7. So, yes, you arrange terms starting with the biggest exponent and go down to the smallest.
