OpenStudy (anonymous):

so this is very simple.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll do the first one as an example

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we have to figure out the x^2, and the number in front of it on the left side is -4, and the number in front of it on the right side is -13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all you do is combine the like terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then you do this: (-4) - (-13)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i think i have it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you do -4x^2- (-13x^) and you know that two negatives makes a positive and get 17x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-17x^2+22x+25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think that's right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17x-5x is 12x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ugh, this confuses me lmao

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you forgot that the minus sign is distributed to the right side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Miss.SweetiePie -4 - -13 is not 17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was still doing the 17-5 one lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so 9x^+12x-7 correct???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17x^2+9x+25 ?? is that the full thing ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 9x^2+12x-7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me draw it out for you
