(16x2 − 5) − (4x2 + 10)?

Parth (parthkohli):

\(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow 16x^2 - 5 - 4x^2 - 10 }\) The signs get changed when we open the bracket. Do the operations on like terms and you're done/

OpenStudy (apoorvk):

Subtract terms with like variable coefficients - that is with alike powers of x. Take care of the signs when you remove the signs.

im confused

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

Do as apoorvk said:) Then u'll get; \[12x^2-15\]

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

As u can see 16x^2 and 4x^2 are like terms. Similarly 4x and 2x are like terms.

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

If u equate this equation to zero or non-zero value; u r going to get solutions for the variable x:)
