Math Problem Statement

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

Solution

Let's simplify the expression step by step:

(7x26x+2)(4x8)+(6x2+3x)(7x^2 - 6x + 2) - (4x - 8) + (-6x^2 + 3x)

  1. First, distribute the negative signs: 7x26x+24x+86x2+3x7x^2 - 6x + 2 - 4x + 8 - 6x^2 + 3x

  2. Now, combine like terms:

  • 7x27x^2 and 6x2-6x^2:
    7x26x2=x27x^2 - 6x^2 = x^2

  • 6x-6x, 4x-4x, and 3x3x:
    6x4x+3x=7x-6x - 4x + 3x = -7x

  • Constants 22 and 88:
    2+8=102 + 8 = 10

So, the simplified expression is: x27x+10x^2 - 7x + 10
