1. 3x^1 + 8 - (2x^2 + 1).....distribute the negative thru the parenthesis
3x^1 + 8 - 2x^2 - 1....now combine like terms
-2x^2 + 3x^1 + 7
2. 5x^2 + 3x - 4 - (x^2 - 6x)...same thing..distribute
5x^2 + 3x - 4 - x^2 + 6x...combine like terms
4x^2 + 9x - 4
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
15x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same amount of variables. Set the equation so that the terms are grouped:
6x + 9x + 6 + 9
Combine like terms:
(6x + 9x) = 15x
(6 + 9) = 15
15x + 15 is your answer.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7w+w-15=17
8w=17+15 add like terms
8w=32 divide
w=32/8=4
now check
7*4+4-15=17
28+4-15=17
17=17
