SwaggyMark:

simply combine like terms Like terms are terms with the same variable and exponent Variables are represented with letters and exponents are the little small numbers usually above the variables. Example of like terms are 2x^2 and 3x^2, both have a variable of x as well as an exponent of 2. in 2x^3+4x^2−16+6x^2−29 2x^3 has no like terms so we leave it as it is 4x^2 and 6x^2 both have x as a variable as well as 2 as an exponent so we combine them 4x^2 + 6x^2 = 10x^2 2x^3 + 10x^2 - 16 - 29 -16 and -29 can be combine as well as they are both constants -16 + -29 = -45 were left with 2x^3 + 10x^2 -45
