Simplify by finding the sum or difference of the polynomials below. Then Identify the degree of your answer. When typing your answer use the carrot key ^ (press shift and 6) to indicate an exponent. Type your terms in descending order and do not put any spaces between your characters. (6w^2+24w+24)-(3w^2-26w+3) This simplifies to: AnswerThe degree of our simplified answer i

Answer :

[tex](6w^2+24w+24)-(3w^2-26w+3)[/tex]

Start by distributing the negative sign

[tex]6w^2+24w+24-3w^2+26w-3[/tex]

Then group terms that have the same literal parts

[tex]\begin{gathered} (6w^2-3w^2)+(24w+26w)+(24-3) \\ \text{The resulting operation simplifies to} \\ 3w^2+50w+21 \\ \text{the degree of the polynomial is 2 since its the highest exponent.} \end{gathered}[/tex]
