How subtracting polynomials differs from adding polynomials and examples?

All you need to do is distribute the subtraction sign to all of the numbers in the polynomial being subtracted. Ex: (6x^4+8x^3-3)-(2x^2-9x+9) you distribute the subtraction sign in the (2x^2-9x+9) and get -2x^2+9x-9. Next, all you have to do is combine like terms. 6x^4+8x^3-3-2x^2+9x-9 Turns into 6x^4+8x^3-2x^2+9x-12

What is the sum of the first eight terms of a geometric series whose first term is 3 and whose common ratio is .5 ?

ser-zykov [4K]

$\bf \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}
\\ \quad \\
 S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=\textit{last term}\\
a_1=\textit{first term}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}
\end{cases}
\\ \quad \\
S_8=3\left( \cfrac{1-0.5^8}{1-0.5} \right)$
