Question

Simplify. 2x + 6x^2 - 10 + 4x^2 - 3X + (-6) =

Answer 1

`\boxed{\mathtt{10x^(2)-x-16}}`

Explanation:

`\textsf{For this problem, we are asked to simplify the given expression.}`

`\textsf{Consider noting that this expression has like terms, meaning we can combine them.}`

`\large\underline{\textsf{What are Like Terms?}}`

`\textsf{Like terms are 2 or more terms that share similarity. They aren't different in a major way.}`

`\textsf{Like terms are terms with the same type of number, variable, and or exponent.}`

`\large\underline{\textsf{Combine Like Terms:}}`

`\mathtt{2x+6x^(2)-10+4x^(2)-3x-6}`

`\boxed{\mathtt{10x^(2)-x-16}}`
