Question

(3x^2+7)+(2x^2-5x+10)

Answer 1

Answer: 5x² - 5x + 17

Explanation:

(3x^2+7)+(2x^2-5x+10)

3x^2 + 2x^2

-5x

7 + 10

5x^2 - 5x + 17

- If I've understood correctly

Answer 2

5x² - 5x + 17

Explanation:

(3x² + 7) + (2x² - 5x + 10)

Combine the like terms.

3x² + 2x² = 5x²

-5x does not have a like term, so there is no change.

7 + 10 = 17

Combine them, and the final equation is

5x² - 5x + 17.
