Add the polynomials (6ab^2+ a^3+b) + (7a^3b - 6ab^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large (6ab^2+a^3+b)+(7a^3b-6ab^2)=6ab^2+a^3+b+7a^3b-6ab^2\] Collect like terms. \[\large =6ab^2-6ab^2+a^3+b+7a^3b\] The 6ab^2 cancels out. SO could you tell me what the final result is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure if we add the a^3 and b with 7a^3b or leave them individually like this: \[7a^3b + a^3 + b\] @Azteck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct. Well Done!

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

if the terms can't be combined, they are left alone.
