Add $ \, \color{blue}{ 4x-3 } \, $ and $ \, \color{orangered}{ 2x+5 }$.
Answer
$$ \left( \color{blue}{4x-3} \right) + \left( \color{orangered}{2x+5} \right) = 6x+2 $$
Explanation
Step 1: Write second polynomial below the first one. Making sure like terms are lined up.
$$ \begin{array}{lrr} & 4x & -3 \\ \color{blue}{ + } & 2x & 5 \\ \hline \end{array} $$Step 2: Combine like terms (add each column):
$$ \begin{array}{lrr} & 4x & -3 \\ \color{blue}{ + } & 2x & 5 \\ \hline & 6x & 2 \end{array} $$This page was created using
