Operations with Polynomials: Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, and Dividing

This video tutorial covers operations with polynomials, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It explains how to add polynomials by combining like terms, subtract by distributing negatives, and multiply using methods like FOIL and the box method. The tutorial also delves into polynomial long division and synthetic division, providing step-by-step examples for each operation.
