Answer 1

-8b^2 + 4b

Explanation:

To simplify the expression (-6b^2 2b-1) + (-2b^2 + 4b), we need to combine like terms.

First, let's distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the first set of parentheses:

(-6b^2) + (-2b^1) = -6b^2 - 2b^1

Now let's combine the terms inside the second set of parentheses:

(-2b^2) + (4b) = -2b^2 + 4b

Finally, let's add the two expressions:

(-6b^2 - 2b^1) + (-2b^2 + 4b) = -6b^2 - 2b^1 - 2b^2 + 4b

Simplifying, we get:

-8b^2 + 4b = -8b^2 + 4b

The final simplified expression is: -8b^2 + 4b.
