OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(5x^2+3x-4)+(3x^2 -x+2)\] maybe it would be easier to group like terms together first and get \[5x^2+3x^2+3x-x-4+2\]

OpenStudy (31356):

Okay, now that is much better. ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now that the like terms are together, you can easily see how to combine them

OpenStudy (31356):

Okay

OpenStudy (31356):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw i can check your answer if you like

OpenStudy (31356):

So what is the answer you got or received?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didn't get one, waiting for you

OpenStudy (31356):

Oh okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is \(5x^2+3x^2\) ?

OpenStudy (31356):

8x^2

OpenStudy (31356):

@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how bout \(3x-x\) ?

OpenStudy (31356):

2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k good finally \(-4+2\)

OpenStudy (31356):

-2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it so final answer?

OpenStudy (31356):

8x^2+2x-2 right?

OpenStudy (31356):

I think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup with a little practice you can do it in your head without writing the like terms together, find them with your eyeballs

OpenStudy (31356):

Thanks! ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw
