I need a refresher... :P what happens when you add x to x^2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get \(x^2+x\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nothing happens, you just get x + x^2

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Yup, you can't add them because the powers, they're different terms.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

If it was something like x+3x then you could add those.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

No, don't, if you have questions just ask. No one will judge you :)
