Question 356780: As long as I understand how to add and subtract polynomials, I can select the format, horizontal or vertical, that works best for me.
yes or no and give an example please

Answer by mananth(16946)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
yes you can add them vertically or horizontally.
the answer will be the same.
But vertical adding will become tedious later on in higher classes involving many terms.
it is better to practise grouping the like terms and adding or subtracting them
horizontally.
