Question

1. Combine Like terms: 8x^2 + 2x^2 + 7x *

Answer 1

`10x^2+7x`

Explanation:

First let's identify the two terms:
`x^(2)` and
`x`.

The equation isn't combined or simplified rather. To simplify/combine like terms, you add/subtract the identical terms together. So let's do just that.

`8x^2+2x^2+7x\\10x^2+7x`

Your final answer is :
`10x^2+7x`

Answer 2

Explanation:

8x^2 and 2x^2 are like terms

8x^2 + 2x^2 + 7x

= 10x^2 + 7x
