Simplify (x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – (3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
The first thing I have to do is take that "minus" sign through the parentheses containing the second polynomial. Some students find it helpful to put a "1" in front of the parentheses, to help them keep track of the minus sign.
Here's what the subtraction looks like, when working horizontally:
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – (3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – 1(3x3 – 8x2 – 5x + 6)
(x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4) – 1(3x3) – 1 (–8x2) – 1(–5x) – 1(6)
x3 + 3x2 + 5x – 4 – 3x3 + 8x2 + 5x – 6
x3 – 3x3 + 3x2 + 8x2 + 5x + 5x – 4 – 6
–2x3 + 11x2 + 10x –10
And here's what the subtraction looks like, when going vertically:

−(3x

−5x

In the horizontal addition (above), you may have noticed that running the negative through the parentheses changed the sign on each and every term inside those parentheses. The shortcut when working vertically is to not bother writing in the subtaction sign or the parentheses; instead, write the second polynomial in the second row, and then just flip all the signs in that row, "plus" to "minus" and "minus" to "plus".

The total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds
<h3>Sum of values and decimals</h3>
Decimal number are numbers that has decimal points. Given the following information;
The total shrimp Spencer catch = 2 pounds
The total shrimp Jaclyn catch = 3.25 pounds
The total shrimp Ayden catch = 4.375 pounds
Determine the total pounds of shrimp they catch
Total shrimp = 2 + 3.25 + 4.375
Total shrimp = 9.625 pounds
Hence the total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds
