Question

which polynomial correctly combines the like terms and expresses the given polynomial in standard form? 8mn5-2m6+5m2n4-m3n3+n6-4m6+9m2n4-mn5-4m3n3

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer would be 7mn^5 - 2m^6 + 14m^2n^4 - 5m^3n^3 + n^6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find that answer, start by grouping all of the terms by their variable values. Ones that are the same should be combined.

8mn^5 - mn^5 = 7mn^5

2m^6 - 4m^6 = -2m^6

5m^2n^4 + 9m^2n^4 = 14m^2n^4

-m^3n^3 - 4m^3n^3 = -5m^3n^3

n^6 = n^6

Now we simply combine them all to get

7mn^5 - 2m^6 + 14m^2n^4 - 5m^3n^3 + n^6
