Answer 1

Let's perform the operation step by step for the given expression:

\[ (-10x^2 + 4) + (-9x - 6) \]

First, we will write down the expression clearly:

\[ -10x^2 + 4 - 9x - 6 \]

Next, we will combine like terms. This involves gathering all the terms by their respective degrees:

1. The \( x^2 \) term: \(-10x^2\)
2. The \( x \) term: \(-9x\)
3. The constant terms: \(4 - 6 = -2\)

Now, we can put these together:

\[ -10x^2 - 9x - 2 \]

So, the final result after combining like terms is:

\[ -10x^2 - 9x - 2 \]
