Answer 1

4x^2 + 2x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount Thompson and Murray earn, we just add 4x2 – 3x + 9 to 5x + 13.

`(4x^2-3x+9)+(5x+13)`

To add the two expressions, we just sum the like terms. This means we do the following.

Hence, the total amount earned is 4x^2 + 2x + 22.
