This video tutorial covers the process of adding and subtracting polynomials. It begins with an introduction to the topic and instructions for organizing notes. The tutorial then provides detailed steps and examples for both adding and subtracting polynomials, emphasizing the importance of combining like terms and writing answers in standard form. The video includes challenge problems to test understanding and concludes with assignments and extra credit opportunities for further practice.

What is the first step in adding polynomials?

• Rearrange the terms randomly

• Distribute the negative sign

• Ignore the parentheses and add like terms

• Combine like terms immediately
