Question

How do you simplify `4y^4 + 3y^2 + y^4`?

Answer 1

First step, find the like terms.
There are two like terms = `4y^4` and `y^4`.
Add all like terms together: `4y^4 + y^4 = 5y^4`.

Simplify with other unlike terms by putting them together:
Therefore your simplified answer is `5y^4 + 3y^2`.
