1. The document is an algebra worksheet on adding polynomials.
2. It provides two objectives: rearranging polynomials and adding polynomials by combining like terms.
3. The rules for adding polynomials are that like terms must be combined, the signs of all polynomials remain the same, and adding two numbers of the same sign results in a positive total while adding two numbers of opposite signs results in taking the difference between their absolute values.

OBJECTIVE: 1. Rearrange the polynomials 2. Add polynomials by combining like terms Addition of Polynomials • Rule 1: Always take like terms together while performing addition. Like Terms: Terms that have identical variable parts (same variable(s) and same exponent(s)) • Rule 2: Signs of all the polynomials remain the same. Adding two positive integers always results in a positive value that is greater than both the integers. Adding two negative integers always results in a negative number that is smaller than the given numbers. Adding a positive number with a negative number is done by finding the difference between the absolute value of both numbers. Then, the sign with the greater number gets attached to the sum. A.
