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