Exploring Operations with Polynomials

This video tutorial covers operations with polynomials, including adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing them. It explains the importance of like terms in addition and subtraction, and how to handle exponents in multiplication and division. The tutorial also demonstrates the distributive property and the FOIL method for multiplying binomials, providing examples throughout to illustrate each concept.
