To add the two expressions, we first align like terms:
- Expression 1: -3k + 4k^3 - 2
- Expression 2: 9k^2 - 3k^3 + 4k - 3
Now, let's combine the terms:
-
For \(k^3\): \[ 4k^3 - 3k^3 = 1k^3 \]
-
For \(k^2\): \[ 0 + 9k^2 = 9k^2 \]
-
For \(k\): \[ -3k + 4k = 1k \]
-
For the constant: \[ -2 - 3 = -5 \]
Now, we can write the combined expression as: \[ 1k^3 + 9k^2 + 1k - 5 \]
In terms of the blanks:
- The coefficient of \(k^3\) is 1.
- The coefficient of \(k^2\) is 9.
- The coefficient of \(k\) is 1.
- The constant is -5.
So the final answer is: \[ 1k^3 + 9k^2 + 1k - 5 \]
Which fills the blanks: ___k^3 + ___k^2 + ___k + ___ becomes 1 for \(k^3\), 9 for \(k^2\), 1 for \(k\), and -5 for the constant.
