Example Questions
Example Question #168 : Polynomials
Simplify the following:
To solve this problem, first distribute anything through parentheses that needs to be distributed, then combine all terms with like variables (i.e. same variable, same exponent):
Example Question #169 : Polynomials
Simplify the following expression:
Simplify the following expression:
Let's begin by putting each polynomial in standard form (decreasing exponent order)
Good, see how the highest exponents are on the left, and the lowest are on the right? That's standard form.
Next, let's remove the parentheses and put terms with the same exponent next to eachother.
Okay, finally, combine like terms by adding the coefficients (the numbers out front).
Notice that the squared terms cancel out, and the fifth term stays the same.
Example Question #4401 : Algebra 1
Simplify the following:
To solve this problem, first distribute anything through parentheses that needs to be distributed, then combine all terms with like variables (i.e. same variable, same exponent):
Example Question #4402 : Algebra 1
To solve this problem, first distribute anything through parentheses that needs to be distributed, then combine all terms with like variables (i.e. same variable, same exponent):
Example Question #4403 : Algebra 1
Simplify the following:
To solve this problem, first distribute anything through parentheses that needs to be distributed, then combine all terms with like variables (i.e. same variable, same exponent):
Example Question #4404 : Algebra 1
To solve this problem, first distribute anything through parentheses that needs to be distributed, then combine all terms with like variables (i.e. same variable, same exponent):
Example Question #4405 : Algebra 1
Simplify:
To solve, simply combine like terms by adding their coefficients. Thus,
Example Question #176 : Polynomials
Find the sum of the polynomials:
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.
Example Question #177 : Polynomials
Add the following polynomials:
