I keep getting the following error:

Error	1	error C2678: binary '+' : no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'int' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

and I can't figure out how to fix it...I believe it has something to do with the red portion of the code, but I can't seem to fix it...Any Suggestions....

You didn't define a operator+, that takes an int. You only defined
a operator+ that takes another Polynomial.

How do I set that up, if the SoloNumber1 variable is established within Polynomial.Poly3?

Would it be

int operator +(Polynomial &SoloNumber1, Polynomial ConstValue)
{
	int NewValue=0;
	
	NewValue = SoloNumber1 + ConstValue;

	return NewValue;
}

I've tried everything that I can think of, but I'm still getting that error....any suggestions?
