Exploring Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

The video tutorial covers the basics of polynomials, including monomials, binomials, and trinomials. It explains how to identify polynomials, determine their degrees, and write them in standard form. The tutorial also demonstrates how to add and subtract polynomials, emphasizing the importance of combining like terms. Finally, it applies these concepts to predict sales using polynomial equations.
