Adding and Subtracting Radical Expressions
First, SIMPLIFY each radical. Then, the INDICES and the
RADICANDS must be exactly the same. If the indices and
radicands are the same, then add or subtract the terms
IN FRONT OF each like radical. If the indices and radicands
are not the same, then you can add or subtract the radicals.
