Question 602642: What are some ways that adding radical expressions is similar to adding polynomial expressions? How are the two processes different? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
In order to add radicals, they have to be the same, just like the variables in a polynomial. You can add 1 fernblatz plus 2 fernblatzes to get 3 fernblatzes, but you can't add 1 fernblatz and 1 horbesnort because they are two different things. You can add
Just like you can add
but you can't add
Just like you can't add
