Addition and Subtraction of Polynomials

Practice adding and subtracting polynomials. Be sure to watch signs and add and subtract only like terms. Remember ^ followed by a number indicates an exponent.

AB
(3x - 2y +3) + (-7x +4y -3) =-4x + 2y
(y^2 -3y -2) - (3y^2 +5y -4) =-2y^2 -8y +2
(5a^2 -11a +12) + (-8a^2 -2a -20 )=-3a^2 -13a -8
(7s +3) - (-2s -4) =9s + 7
7x^3 -15x^2y) - (x^3 -3xy^2 +y^2) =6x^3 -15x^2y +3xy^2 -y^2
(2k -5r +11) - (-7k +2r +5) =9k -7r +6
(x^2y +3xy^2 +7) - (-7x^2y +4xy^2 +20) =8x^2y -xy^2 -13
(4x^2 +10x -5) + (x^2 -10x -6) =5x^2 -11
(-7x^2 -5x +4) - (-x^2 -x -6) =-6x^2 -4x +10
(-x -y) - (x -y) =-2x
(x + 2y) + (x -5) =2x +2y -5
(3x^2 +4) - (5x^2 -7x +12) =-2x^2 +7x -8
(a -b -c) + (-a -b +c) =-2b
(1/2x -2/3y) - (3/4x + 5/3y)=-1/4x -7/3y
(5a^3 -7a^2 +2a -16) + (-12a^3 +2a^2 -11a -24) =-7a^3 -5a^2 -9a -40
