Find the sum of (x2 – 7x + 5) and (-3x2 - x + 10)
[

Answer 1

-2x² - 8x + 15 = 0

Explanation:

Given the following algebraic expression;

x² – 7x + 5

-3x² - x + 10

To add the equation together;

x² – 7x + 5 + (-3x² - x + 10) = 0

x² – 7x + 5 - 3x² - x + 10 = 0

Collecting like terms, we have;

(x² - 3x²) - (7x + x) + (5 + 10) = 0

-2x² - 8x + 15 = 0
