Answer:


2a^4c-2ac^2-15

Explanation:


6a^4c+8ac^2-4a^4c-15-10ac^2

We need to organize this expression into groups of like terms, so we can combine them easier. There are 2 groups of like terms,


6a^4c-4a^4c and
8ac^2-10ac^2


6a^4c-4a^4c+8ac^2-10ac^2-15

Add similar elements:


2a^4c+8ac^2-10ac^2-15

Add,
8ac^2-10ac^2=-2ac^2


=2a^4c-2ac^2-15

Answer:

2a^4c-2ac^2-15

Explanation:

Sorry, I not sure if this is right or not cause I don't know if the exponent for -4a^4c is that or -4a^4c-15, but I'm just going to go with -4a^4c. However aside from that you just combine like terms.
