Answer:
Explanation:
The sum of the polynomials in the equation is 3x² - 2x - 3
Explanation:
(3 - 4x + 8x²) + (-6 + 2x - 5x²)
Distribute the positive sign to (-6 + 2x - 5x²). So all of these terms will stay the same and maintain their original signs.
3 - 4x + 8x² - 6 + 2x - 5x²
Combine like terms.
- 3 - 2x + 3x²
Now put the equation in standard form. This means that the exponential numbers will be ordered in descending order.
3x² - 2x - 3
