Question

(3x - 5) + (5x + 1) Simplify it in polynomials

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is = 8x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{\sf{8x-4}}}$

Solution Steps:

______________________________

1.) Combine 3x and 5x:

• $3x+5x=8x$

 - When there is more then 1 variable then you must combine them, (If possible.) In this case we have 2 variables, so to combine them you just have to add them together.

Equation at the end of Step 1:

• $8x-5+1$

2.) Add −5 and 1:

• $-5+1=-4$

 - We do this because we need to get to 1 leftover number. So to do this, you just subtract/add the numbers by each other. In this case we have to add -5 by 1.

So your answer is $\bold{8x-4}$.
