Exploring Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

The video tutorial covers the basics of polynomials, including definitions of monomials, binomials, and trinomials. It explains how to determine the degree of a polynomial and categorize it as linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic. The tutorial also demonstrates how to identify polynomial types and degrees, write polynomials in standard form, and find the leading coefficient. Additionally, it provides guidance on adding and subtracting polynomials by combining like terms and ensuring the result is in standard form.
