Question

Simplify and write answer in standard form.

Answer 1

Answer:

$x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms (terms with the same exponent).

$x^3+(3x^2+5x^2)+(x+x)+1=x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

"Standard form" means to list terms so the exponents go from high to low (descending order).
