Question

Simplify the expression (1 - 3n3 + 2n4) + (8n4 – 13 – 7)

Answer 1

=
`10n^4 - 3n^3 -20`

Explanation:

Given that:

=(1 - 3n3 + 2n4) + (8n4 – 13 – 7)

By opening the brackets we get:

= 1-3n3 +2n4 +8n4 -13 -7

By adding like terms: Constants into constants and variables with same powers of x.....

= -20 - 3n3 +10n4

So by arranging the answer in decreasing order of powers of x:

=
`10n^4 - 3n^3 -20`
