Multiple choice

To produce the addition of polynomials which of the following steps to be performed?

  1. The terms of the polynomials are scanned from left to right.

  2. The terms with powers that occurs only in one polynomials are simply copied into resulting polynomial.

  3. The coefficients of terms with same powers are added and then the new term is copied into the resulting polynomial.

  4. All of these

D Correct answer
Explanation

Adding polynomials represented as linked lists requires: scanning terms left to right, copying unique terms directly to the result, and combining coefficients of like-powered terms. All three operations are essential for complete polynomial addition, making 'All of these' the correct answer.
