Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

A (a)   is an algebraic expression containing one term.

Each piece of the polynomial being added is called a (a)   .

A (a)   is the sum or difference of monomials.

The degree of the monomial 

 $2x^2y^3$  is (a)   . 

The degree of the polynomial

 $2x^4-3x^{ }$   is ____. 

• 1

• 2

• -3

• 4

The degree of the polynomial

 $-8x^3+7x^6$   is _____. 

• -8

• 3

• 6

• 7

• 9

Find the sum by combining like terms:

 $\left(4x^2+x+7\right)+\left(2x^2+3x+1\right)$  

•  $6x^2+3x+8$  

•  $6x^2+4x+8$  

•  $6x^4+3x^2+8$  

•  $6x^4+4x^2+8$
