when you add: 2x+8x
would the answer be 10x^2? or 10x?

10x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thanks
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10x because when adding terms with variable with same power we just add the coefficients
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10x b'coz x+x=2x but x*x=x^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so when you multiply 2x and 8x would it equal to 10x^2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
You are not multiplying you are adding, you add the 2 and the 8 to get 10 x
