Question

show all work. Suzie’s flower shop estimates that supplies costs for one month will be given by the polynomial 3x^2 + 7x – 3. She estimates that utilities costs for one month is given by 5x + 2. Find and simplify an expression that would estimate Suzie’s total costs for one month.

Answer 1

Okay so you're given two expressions that represents costs for supplies and utilities in the form of polynomials respectively for one month. So to estimate Suzie's total costs for one month with a simplified expression all you need to do is to add those two expressions together (*By adding them I mean adding their like terms)

Answer 2

If her total costs are supplies and utilities, then it will be the sum of those two costs.

Answer 3

(\[3x ^{2}+7x -3 + 5x + 2 = 3x ^{2}+12x -1\]
