Simplify the expression.
8x2 + 16x – x2 – 26x


Sagot :

I am going to assume that the "8x2" is [tex]8x^2[/tex]. We need to combine like terms in this equation. Lets group them together first.

[tex]8x^2 - x^2 + 16x - 26x[/tex]

We combine like terms.

[tex]7x^2 - 10x[/tex]

Therefore, that is our final answer.
