What is (3x2−2)+(11−5x) ?(1 point) Responses 3x2+5x−9 3 x squared plus 5 x minus 9 −2x2+9 negative 2 x squared plus 9 3x2−5x+9 3 x squared minus 5 x plus 9 2x2−9

1 answer

To simplify the expression \((3x^2 - 2) + (11 - 5x)\), combine like terms:

  1. Combine the \(x^2\) terms: \(3x^2\)
  2. Combine the \(x\) terms: \(0 - 5x = -5x\)
  3. Combine the constant terms: \(-2 + 11 = 9\)

Putting it all together, we have:

\[ 3x^2 - 5x + 9 \]

So, the simplified expression is \(3x^2 - 5x + 9\). The correct response is:

3x² − 5x + 9.
