Combining Like Terms and Adding and Subtracting Polynomials | ASVAB & PiCAT Algebra Review
In this video, I discuss what like terms are and how to combine them. In addition, I discuss what polynomials are as well as how to add and subtract them. In order to do well on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB), you must be comfortable solving problems that are similar to the ones in this video.

I've started watching your videos after purchasing a book on the ASVAB. Your videos seemed to explain things better! I took the ASVAB 12 years ago, I was attempting to raise my GT score from a 100 to a 110. I only watched your videos, approximately 10 hours over a period of a month! No tutor, no books, etc... Just walked out from taking the test and I'm sitting at a 119 GT score, 77 percentile overall! Thanks for your help!
This Video is amazing its just what I needed!!!!!! Thank You
thank you very much Grammar Hero, i thought ill never be able to solve something on the AFQT Math section, but you really got me covered especially in this video

Hi Grammar Hero I just commented on another video about how to add and subtract numbers on questions like this. I am confused at 33:40 in the video.

I had a video on adding and subtracting positive and negative integers. Here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/laFpu6OvqNTUp9I.html
Can you give me an explanation? I thought when simplifying algebraic expressions the largest exponent comes first, then variables, then constants. But I'm getting confused because sometimes I'll see an answer written a^2 + 5a + 4b^2 INSTEAD OF 4b^2 + a^2 + 5a, OR x^4 + z^4 - z^5 INSTEAD OF z^5 being first. Another example, is the problem 3z^2(6xy +4z) = 18xyz^2 + 12z^3 why is the z^2 in the first term after the XY?

Generally speaking, the highest exponent comes first, then variables, and then constants. In reality, you just want to make sure all of the variables and constants are there in the answer choice. You might see it either way on the test.

If you have a problem with more than 2 sets of polynomials in parentheses, example: (1x-2)-(5-x)+(3x^2-4+y) do you distribute to just the polynomial right next to the - symbol or do you distribute to all the remaining sets, so the second and third in this example.

You follow the order of operations. In for the order of operations, addition and subtraction have equal precedence, you work them out as the appear in the expression from left to right. You only distribute signs that correspond to the terms that are in each set of parentheses, not all of the remaining ones.

For example: 6 - (-7) + 5 = 6 + 7 + 5 = 18 Why would I ever distribute that negative sign to the 5? The same applies to polynomials, but you can have multiple terms inside the parenthesis.

For example: x - (-4x + 2) + 10x = x + 4x - 2 + 10x = 15 x - 2
I am wondering if there is a reason you wrote it as 10c+6z and not 6z +10c. the 6z appears first in the equation.

Some feedback from JUST THE PAST TWO DAYS! You literally just need to watch the videos in my study guide playlist and then take about 10 practice tests to pass the ASVAB. It's that simple. Grammar Hero's 2021 ASVAB AFQT Study Guide: Free ASVAB Tutoring and Practice Tests kzread.info/dash/bejne/oKx-y8Nwh8u_hrg.html _______________ Just re took my asvab to raise my GT score.

I was hurt but I’m so proud of myself. Thank you so much. You are amazing and I took my time but I flew through the math like it was nothing !!! _______________ Hello Grammar Hero! I don't know if you still remember me, but I took my PICAT 3 weeks ago and verified it yesterday and passed with a 61.

But when I came across your channel you helped me go from 18 to a 61 within 2 months! Guys I am telling you grammar hero is the best, his dedication and hard work really pays off. Thanks a lot of your help I couldn't have done it without you. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!💯💯 _______________ I've started watching your videos after purchasing a book on the ASVAB.

" I have never been good at math or school subjects" Neither have I, but it's my fault, I never applied myself. I always learned just enough to barely pass tests and never practiced so it's no wonder that I'm bad at math. But it doesn't mean that we can't learn it! I hope you do well on your test!
Welp... I passed with a 33. Now on to the PiCat🙄🙄
