Answer:


-5m^2+7m+8

Explanation:

Here, we add up two polynomials shown.

The polynomials are:


[-m^2 + 6]+[-4m^2 +7m + 2]

In order to add up the 2 polynomials shown, we have to see the "like terms" and add them up.

We add up the "
m^2" terms and the constant (number) terms. There is one term with "m", so we leave it like that. Let's add up. Shown below:\


[-m^2 + 6]+[-4m^2 +7m + 2]\\=-m^2-4m^2+6+2+7m\\=-5m^2+7m+8

This is the sum of the 2 polynomials shown:
-5m^2+7m+8
