what is the sum of 18x²y and -34x²y?

Sagot :

[tex] \large\underline \bold{{SOLUTION}}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\sf{(18x²y) +(-34x²y)}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\sf{18x²y - 34x²y}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\boxed{\sf{-16x²y}}[/tex]

[tex] \large\underline{ \bold{ANSWER}}[/tex]

  • [tex]\textrm{The sum is -16x²y}[/tex]

[tex]\Large\bold\red{\tt{Addition\:of\: Polynomials}}[/tex]

[tex] \large \tt (18 {x}^{2} y) + ( - 34 {x}^{2} y) \\ \\ \large\tt =18x²y–34x²y\\ \\ \large = \red{ \boxed{ \tt { - 16 {x}^{2} y}}}[/tex]
