What are like terms in polynomials?
Back
Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. For example, 2x^2 and 3x^2 are like terms, while 2x and 2x^2 are not.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you add polynomials?
Back
To add polynomials, combine like terms by adding their coefficients. For example, (3x^2 + 2x) + (4x^2 + 5) = (3x^2 + 4x^2) + 2x + 5 = 7x^2 + 2x + 5.

What is the leading coefficient of a polynomial?
Back
The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the term with the highest degree in a polynomial. For example, in 5x^4 + 3x^2 - 2, the leading coefficient is 5.
