A.APR.1 Understand that polynomials form a system


analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed
under the operations of addition, subtraction, and
multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply
polynomials.
A.SSE.1a Interpret parts of an expression, such as
terms, factors, and coefficients.

Adding Polynomials

Adding polynomials involves adding like terms. When


adding polynomials, you can group like terms by using
a horizontal or vertical format.
