Answer:

3x^2 + 9x + 1

Or

3x ( x + 3 ) + 1

Explanation:

(5x - 2 +3x^2 ) + (4x + 3 )

To make this a little bit more easier to read, you can remove the parentheses:

5x - 2 + 3x^2 + 4x + 3

Now, write in a way so that the like terms are next to each other:

3x^2 + 5x + 4x - 2 + 3

Now simplify the 'x' terms to get:

3x^2 + 9x - 2 + 3

Now, simplify the integers (the ones with now variables with them) to get:

3x^2 + 9x + 1

If you want, you can factor out the 3x for two of the terms to get :

3x ( x + 3 ) + 1

Therefore, your simplest form can either be 3x^2 + 9x + 1 OR 3x (x + 3 ) + 1
