Add $ \, \color{blue}{ 7m+1 } \, $ and $ \, \color{orangered}{ 9m+6 }$.
Answer
$$ \left( \color{blue}{7m+1} \right) + \left( \color{orangered}{9m+6} \right) = 16m+7 $$
Explanation
Step 1: Write second polynomial below the first one. Making sure like terms are lined up.
$$ \begin{array}{lrr} & 7m & 1 \\ \color{blue}{ + } & 9m & 6 \\ \hline \end{array} $$Step 2: Combine like terms (add each column):
$$ \begin{array}{lrr} & 7m & 1 \\ \color{blue}{ + } & 9m & 6 \\ \hline & 16m & 7 \end{array} $$This page was created using
