ALGEBRA WORKSHEET NO : 1

TOPIC: ADDITION OF POLYNOMIALS


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. Simplify by combining like terms. Write
