To determine which example correctly demonstrates polynomial addition, we need to add the polynomials \(2x^2 + 6x + 1\) and \(3x^2 + 3x + 9\):
-
Add the coefficients of \(x^2\):
- \(2 + 3 = 5\)
-
Add the coefficients of \(x\):
- \(6 + 3 = 9\)
-
Add the constant terms:
- \(1 + 9 = 10\)
Combining all these results, we get: \[ (2x^2 + 6x + 1) + (3x^2 + 3x + 9) = 5x^2 + 9x + 10 \]
Thus, the correct example that demonstrates polynomial addition is: \[ (2x^2+6x+1)+(3x^2+3x+9)=5x^2+9x+10 \]
