Math Problem Statement

(7x2-6x+2) - (4x-8) + (-6x2 + 3x)

Solution

To simplify the expression (7x26x+2)(4x8)+(6x2+3x)(7x^2 - 6x + 2) - (4x - 8) + (-6x^2 + 3x), follow these steps:

  1. Distribute any subtraction across the terms: 7x26x+24x+8+(6x2+3x)7x^2 - 6x + 2 - 4x + 8 + (-6x^2 + 3x)

  2. Combine like terms:

    • Combine the x2x^2 terms: 7x26x2=1x27x^2 - 6x^2 = 1x^2
    • Combine the xx terms: 6x4x+3x=7x-6x - 4x + 3x = -7x
    • Combine the constant terms: 2+8=102 + 8 = 10
  3. The simplified expression is: x27x+10x^2 - 7x + 10
