Question

What is the simplified form of (4j2 + 6) + (2j - 3)?

Answer 1

To simplify this expression, we need to combine like terms:

(4j^2 + 6) + (2j - 3)

First, distribute the addition sign through the second set of parentheses:

4j^2 + 6 + 2j - 3

Now, combine like terms:

4j^2 + 2j + 6 - 3

4j^2 + 2j + 3

So, the simplified form of (4j^2 + 6) + (2j - 3) is 4j^2 + 2j + 3.
