Question

I need help simplifying this expression

Answer 1

7xy+2x^2t

Explanation:

Simplify expression by collecting like terms.

So in:

5xy - x^2t + 2xy + 3x^2t, the like terms are 5xy and 2xy and -x^2t and 3x^2t

Complete the performance required for each pair:

5xy + 2xy = 7xy

- x^2t + 3x^2t = 2x^2t

Now, put them back together. Use a + sign between them because both are positive.

7xy+2x^2t

Hope this Helps

Good Luck.

Answer 2

X(2xt+7y)

Explanation:

5xy-x^2t+2xy+3x^2t

Combining like terms

-x^2t+3x^2t+5xy+2xy

2x^2t +7xy

X(2xt+7y)
