Please use this template to insert your answers for the assignment. Please choose one of the three methods for showing your work (EE, ALT keys, or MathType). Remember that your work should be clear and legible. The ALT shortcut for radicals is ALT +251, √. Please note that it does not draw the full line above the sign. Therefore it will be assumed that anything that follows the √ is intended to be included under the radical. Using the superscript button above (in the font table), you can make powers; example: x2. You may also use Equation Editor as needed too.
INSTRUCTIONS: Read the references and examples found on the Background Info page. Work out the problems, showing all the computational steps. This is particularly important for those problems where the answer is given.
Solve for x, unless otherwise indicated. Check your answer by substituting your calculated value into the original expression to verify that it is correct.

ADDING / SUBTRACTING / MULTIPLYING POLYNOMIALS
You are given two polynomials. (Remember that monomials such as 2x and binomials such as 2x+1 are special cases of polynomials). For each problem, calculate the sum, difference, and product of the two polynomials. Each problem will have 3 answers.
Refer to the case assignment for an example.
