Question

Which of these correctly rearranges the terms in this polynomial so like terms are next to each other?3 – 6x + 4x2 + 3x – 6x2 – 4

Answer 1

Answer:

The rearrangement of the terms is $4x^2-6x^2-6x+3x+3-4$.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$3-6x+4x^2+3x-6x^2-4$

Two terms are called like terms if they have same variables having same degree.

In the given expression 3 and -4, -6x and 3x, 4x² and -6x² are like terms.

Arrange the given terms according to their degree and arrange in this way so like terms are next to each other.

$4x^2-6x^2-6x+3x+3-4$

Therefore the rearrangement of the terms is $4x^2-6x^2-6x+3x+3-4$.
