(2e^2-5e)+(7e-3e^2) MEDAL REWARDED!! Using polynomial rules.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sort of like the last one lets group them together

OpenStudy (31356):

OK

OpenStudy (31356):

You receive the medal already. ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(2e^2-5e)+(7e-3e^2)\] \[2e^2-3e^2-5e+7e\]

OpenStudy (31356):

Ok

OpenStudy (31356):

1e^2-2e?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now the like terms are together (terms with same exponent) so your final job is to compute \[2e^2-3e^2\] and \[-5e+7e\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

careful with your signs there

OpenStudy (31356):

Is it wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes what is \(-5+7\) or if you prefer \(7-5\) ?

OpenStudy (31356):

-2 or 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol no such number as "-2 or 2" really i bet you know what \(7-5\) is

OpenStudy (31356):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k good and so \(-5e+7e=2e\) right?

OpenStudy (31356):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now how about \(2e^2-3e^2\) which is really a matter of computing \(2-3\)

OpenStudy (31356):

-1e^2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

although it would make your teacher happier if you just wrote \(-e^2\) and omitted the unnecessary \(1\)

OpenStudy (31356):

-1e^2+2 for the answer right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

final answer? yes

OpenStudy (31356):

Okay thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw

OpenStudy (31356):

Thanks for the medal!
