I can't figure out algebra 1 for the life of me. adding and subtracting polynomials and crap. TBH I may need help with it all but no FG to give. So if someone is generous enough to help me through my algebra 1 i'll be happy <3

How can you possibly have trouble adding and subtracting polynomials? It's like having trouble adding 3 plus 6.

Think of it like this. Every variable and exponent is some kind of alcohol and antibiotic.

So 5x^2 is different from 5x because it is 5x SQUARED.

Once you understand that, it's just regular adding and subtracting.

You can't mix alcohol and antibiotics, YOU JUST CAN'T!

--------------

Aside from that terrible analogy, I don't know if you can or can't mix those
two; it was just the first thing that came to mind :lol:
