Answer:

(A)
3x^3+5x+2

Explanation:

To Simplify: The quantity 3 times x to the 4th power plus 5 times x to the 2nd power plus 2 times x all over x.

Solution: The given statement can be easily rewritten as:


The quantity 3 times x to the 4th power=3x^4,


5 times x to the 2nd power=5x^2 and


2 times x =2x

Thus, according to the statement, the expression can be written as:


(3x^4+5x^2+2x)/(x)


3x^3+5x+2

which is the required simplified expression.

Thus,option A is correct.
