(subtracting polynomials)...Aliens... HEAR MY WISDOM!!
Earthlings: Subtracting polynomials is the same as Adding polynomials except we have to change the subtraction sign into an addition sign.
Aliens: How do you solve this "Wise One"?...... (5x + 10y + 11) - (10x + 15y + 13)
Earthlings: Like this..
Step one:
Write terms in column form with their like terms
(+5x +10y +11)
- ( +10x +15y +13)
_____________________
Step two:
Change the second set of polynomials to the opposite sign and change the subtraction sign to an addition sign, this is called the additive inverse.
(+5x +10y +11)
+ (-10x -15y -13 )
_____________________
Step three:
Add all the like terms together.
(+5x +10y +11)
+ (-10x -15y -13 )
_____________________
-5x -5y -2
Aliens: thank you kind earthling.... maybe now we'll jus bother ms. armstrong more..... for we crave this..... wisdom....
