Question

-15x^3+6x^2

Answer 1

actually that 6 is suppose to be a 4

Answer 2

What are you asked to do? Factor?

Answer 3

no i just need to know if I would add or subtract those exponents

Answer 4

You add exponents when you multiply, say, \(\large a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}\).
Here you are adding two terms. So you don't do anything with the exponents.

Answer 5

so the answer would be -11x^5?

Answer 6

No. They are not LIKE terms and so there is nothing you more to do.

For example:
\(\large -15x^3+4x^3 = -11x^3\)
\(\large -15x^3 \times 4x^2 = -60x^5\)
But
\(\large -15x^3+4x^2 = -15x^3 + 4x^2\) nothing more can be done.

Answer 7

You can factor out x^2 if you want but that is about it.
\(\large -15x^3 + 4x^2 = x^2(-15x + 4) \)

Answer 8

What is the quotient (6x4 – 15x3 + 10x2 – 10x + 4) ÷ (3x2 + 2)?

2x2 – 5x + 2

2x2 + 5x – 2

2x2 – 5x – 2

2x2 + 5x + 2

Answer 9

thats the question

Answer 10

2x^2 - 5x + 2
-------------------------------
3x^2 + 0x + 2 | 6x^4 – 15x^3 + 10x^2 – 10x + 4
| 6x^4 + 0x^3 + 4x^2
---------------------------
- 15x^3 + 6x^2 - 10x
- 15x^3 - 0x^2 - 10x
------------------------------
6x^2 + 0x + 4
6x^2 + 0x + 4
-------------------
