Answer:

The correct answer is A. 10x² + 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify (3x2 − 5x + 9) + (7x2 + 8x − 15) :

(3x2 − 5x + 9) + (7x2 + 8x − 15)

3x2 − 5x + 9 + 7x2 + 8x − 15 (Opening the parenthesis)

3x² + 7x² - 5x + 8x + 9 - 15 (Aligning similar terms)

10x² + 3x - 6

The correct simplified form is A. 10x² + 3x - 6
