+6x+1)+(5x+7)

Answer 1

To perform the operation \((-4x^2 + 6x + 1) + (5x + 7)\), we will combine like terms.

1. Start by distributing and grouping the terms: \[ -4x^2 + 6x + 1 + 5x + 7 \]

2. Combine the \(x\) terms: \[ 6x + 5x = 11x \]

3. Combine the constant terms: \[ 1 + 7 = 8 \]

4. Therefore, the expression can be rewritten as: \[ -4x^2 + 11x + 8 \]

Thus, the final result is: \[ -4x^2 + 11x + 8 \]
