Answer: The answer is 9x-8y²+4y+34

Step-by-step explanation: Since the equation is 12x+4y-3x+2-8y^2 + 32

1. combine like terms so- combine 12x-3x= 89x

2. look for other like terms- 2+32= 34

3. since 8y^2 and 4y are not the same you can combine them

4. put them all together- 9x-8y^2+4y+3

That's you answer. Hope this helped
