Which property does each equation demonstrate?

Answers:
x2 + 2x = 2x + x2:commutative property

Cory writes the polynomial x7 + 3x5 + 3x + 1. Melissa writes the polynomial x7 + 5x + 10. Is there a difference between the degree of the sum and the degree of the difference of the polynomials?

A
Adding their polynomials together or subtracting one polynomial from the other both result in a polynomial with degree 7.
B
Adding their polynomials together or subtracting one polynomial from the other both result in a polynomial with degree 5.
C
Adding their polynomials together results in a polynomial with degree 14, but subtracting one polynomial from the other results in a polynomial with degree 5.
D
Adding their polynomials together results in a polynomial with degree 7, but subtracting one polynomial from the other results in a polynomial with degree 5.

15a2b2 – 20a2b + 6ab2 – 4ab + 7
B
5a2b2 – 20a2b2 + 7
C
5a2b2 + 4a2b2 + 6ab – 4ab – 3
D
–15a2b2 + 20a2b2 – 6ab + 4ab – 7
