Question

How do you write `(6x^3 − 7x − 4) + (4x^3 + 8x + 3)` in standard form?

Answer 1

`10x^3+x-1`

Explanation:

Well, we need to combine like-terms and simpllify the inequality. I do that using the system shown below:

`color(white)(..)6x^3-7x-4`
`+`
`color(white)(..)4x^3+8x+3`
`color(white)()`----------------------------------
`color(white)(..)10x^3+x-1`

You can do this any way you want, but the key is to combine like terms.
