Given the numerical statement:
Add: 2x^3 + 2x^2 + 8x + 16 and -5x – 29
Solution:
The given numerical statement can be written as,
(2x^3 + 2x^2 + 8x + 16) + (-5x - 29)
Now in adding numerical values, we simply need to combine similar terms. This means that we cannot combine a constant with a value that has x.
= 2x^3 + 2x^2 + 8x + 16 - 5x - 29
= 2x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x - 13
Final answer:
= 2x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x - 13
