Slide 2 Adding Polynomials with Miss Pennington Click to
begin!begin Slide 3 Adding polynomials is just like adding any
other problem with just a little bit more thinking You have to
place the like terms near each other while adding to make it easier
on yourself! This can be done vertically or horizontally. Its just
like adding anything else! Slide 4 Example First I will show you
how to do this horizontally! Simplify: (3x+6) + (17x+12 ) Step 1:
Get rid of parentheses. If you need to distribute out a negative
sign, do so now. (In this problem you dont need to do that) Step 2:
Group like terms. Step 3: Simplify Step 1: 3x+6+17x+12 Step 2:
3x+17x+6+12 Step 3: 20x+18 Final Answer: 20x+18 I like adding
horizontally better than vertically! Slide 5 Example Now I will
show you how to do the same problem vertically! Adding a problem
vertically is the same way you added in elementary school where you
line the number up and add them! Step 1: Get rid of the
parentheses. If you need to distribute a negative, do so now. Step
2: Place the polynomials in a vertical addition formula. Step 3:
Simplify Simplify: (3x+6) + (17x+12 ) Step 1: 3x+6+17x+12 Step 2:
3x + 6 17x + 12 Step 3: 20x +18 Final Answer: 20x+18 Slide 6
Simplify: (7x 2 x 4) + (x 2 2x 3) 7x 2 x 4 + x 2 - 2x 3 7x 2 + x 2
x 2x 3 4 8x 2 3x - 7 I have highlighted the three different steps
from the 1 st slide since we are using the horizontal adding
method! Slide 7 YES NO Slide 8 A B C Simplify. Get rid of
