Cory writes the polynomial x^7+3x^5+3x+1. melissa writes the polynomial x^7+5x+10. is there a difference between the defree of the sum and the degree of the difference of the polynomials?

Yes, the degree of sum is differ from the degree of difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Degree of a polynomial is a highest power of its monomials ( single term).

Here, the given polynomials are,

By adding these two polynomials,

Since, the highest power of x in this result = 7

Hence, the degree of sum of the given polynomials = 7

Now, by subtracting the given polynomials,

Since, the highest power of x in this result = 5,

Hence, the degree of difference of the given polynomials = 5

Thus, both the degree of sum and difference are different.

D- Adding their polynomials together results in a polynomial the degree 7, but subtracting one polynomial from the other results in a polynomial with degree 5.
