Example Question #4362 : 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 #4363 : 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 #4364 : 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 #136 : Variables
Subtract the following polynomials:
Subtracting polynomials is very simple. Once we've changed the sign for the polynomial right of the subtraction sign, the problem becomes a matter of collecting like terms.
we've changed the sign of every term of the polynomial right of the subtraction sign because we've distributed the subtraction sign to get rid of the parentheses.
Now we can collect like terms to solve for the final answer.
Example Question #74 : Polynomial Operations
Find the difference of the following polynomials:
Subtracting polynomials is very simple. Once we've changed the sign for the polynomial right of the subtraction sign, the problem becomes a matter of collecting like terms.
we've changed the sign of every term of the polynomial right of the subtraction sign because we've distributed the subtraction sign to get rid of the parentheses.
Now we can collect like terms to solve for the final answer.

Example Question #32 : How To Subtract Polynomials
Subtract the polynomials 
Write the problem as an expression. Remember to brace both polynomials with parentheses since we are subtracting by the quantity.
Remove the parentheses. Simplify by distributing the negative sign through the second polynomial.
Combine like-terms.
