Please help, and thank you!
1st one...(5x2 + 3x + 4) − (2x2 + 5x − 1) you don't need the brackets as both do not need to be multiplied 5x^2 + 3x + 4 - 2x^2 + 5x - 1 add/subtract what should be added/subtracted like 5X^2 - 2x^2 will be 3x^2 leaving 3x^2 + 3x + 4 + 5x - 1 and continue from there the other questions are the same just get rid of the brackets as the brackets aren't multiplied together
How would you get rid of the x? Because I got 20x...
And it has to be a numerical answer.
don't multiply them together and the answers to choose from consists of 'x' so you shouldn't get rid of them the numerical answer is the number beside 'x'
20?
the first one from where i left it 3x^2 + 3x + 4 + 5x - 1 simplify it 3x + 5x is 8x and 4 - 1 is 3 so the whole expression will be 3x^2 + 8x + 3 as you can see it is in the form Ax^2 + Bx + C so Ax^2 is 3x^2 so A will be 3
oh, okay thanks
