Polynomials Worksheet 3 Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

This document provides a worksheet with problems involving adding, subtracting, and simplifying polynomials. The problems ask students to perform operations on polynomial expressions with variables like a, x, y, and z. They are also asked to write expressions describing things like the sum of ages of two people based on their ages as expressions, and the perimeter of a rectangle given the length and width as expressions. The worksheet provides practice applying basic polynomial operations and writing expressions to describe real world scenarios.
