Monomial Operations and Properties

Maria, a mathematician, explains how to solve monomial problems by adding and multiplying them. She emphasizes the importance of identifying like terms when adding monomials and using the multiplication law of exponents when multiplying them. The tutorial provides step-by-step solutions, ensuring learners understand the process of combining coefficients and managing exponents.

What is the first step in determining if two monomials can be added together?

• Check if they have the same variable and exponent.

• Check if they have the same coefficient.

• Check if they have different variables.

• Check if they have different exponents.
