Question

9x^3+5-8x^2-5x^3+3=
A. 4x^-2
B. -4x^3+8
C. 14x^3-8x^2+8
D. 4x^3-8x^2+8

Answer 1

D. 4x^3 - 8x^2 + 8

Explanation:

Let's simplify the given expression step by step:

9x^3 + 5 - 8x^2 - 5x^3 + 3

Combine the like terms (terms with the same exponent):

(9x^3 - 5x^3) + (-8x^2) + (5 + 3)

4x^3 - 8x^2 + 8

So, the simplified expression is:

D. 4x^3 - 8x^2 + 8
