Question

(1/12x^4+5/6x^3+3/8x^2+9)+(-7/12x^4+5/8x^2-9)

Answer 1

I'm only asking the one's I simply can't get no matter how many times I try

Answer 2

well, you have add like terms

Answer 3

Do you mean "one over 12 x to the fourth" or "1/12 times x to the fourth"?

\[\frac{1}{12x^4}\] or \[\frac{1}{12}x^4\]

Answer 4

the second one

Answer 5

Ok. So this is really a question about two big ideas:

1) Adding like terms and
2) Adding fractions.

Which do you feel most comfortable with?

Answer 6

umm neither really, they both frustrate me quite a bit

Answer 7
