Example Question #114 :Polynomial Operations

Find the sum of the polynomials:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Adding polynomials is very simple. It's just a matter of collecting like terms. This means that we look to see if there are similar terms that can have their coefficients added. When we can no longer do this, we have reached our final answer.

Distributing the plus sign to every term in the polynomial right of the sign, we can omit the parentheses.

Now we are left to collect like terms until we've reached our final answer.
