Subtract and simplify: (14x2 + 8) – (6x2 + 5x – 1) so u know the 2 is a square a. 8x2 – 5x – 6 b. 8x2 + 5x + 9 c. 8x2 – 5x + 9 d. 20x2 + 5x – 6

what do you think @Takirap2000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't know i ain't good at this kind of math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 6 more question to ask because i ain't good at it.

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

ok first we apply the distributive property \[14x^{2}+8-(6x ^{2})-(5x)-1(-1)\] then we simplify \[14x ^{2}+8-6x ^{2}-5x+1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we add 14x2 + 6x2 + (-5x) - 8 + 1

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

Then we move -6x2 \[14x ^{2}-6x ^{2}+8-5x+1\] then subtract 6x2 from 14x2 to get 8x2 \[8x ^{2}+8-5x+1\]

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

whats next

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we flip the 8 and 5x over

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

show me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the we will get 8x2 + 5x + 9

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

nope try again remember when flipping it stays the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

+okay so to 8x2 + (-5x) 8 + 1

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

no look We move 8 \[8x^{2}-5x+8+1\] then whats next @Takirap2000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which will be 8x2 - 5x + 9 that the answer

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

correct :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay I got 6 more question
