Question

Combine like terms to complete the equivalent expression.
5x^2 - 9 + 1x + 9x + 10 + (2x^2 - 2) * (7x - 9) * (-x - 2)
-----------------------------------------------------------
2x^2 - 2
5x^2 - 9 + 1x + 9x + 10 + (14x^2 - 18x^2) + (14x - 9x) * (9 - 1)

Solution: First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses: (2x^2 - 2) * (7x - 9) * (-x - 2) / (2x^2 - 2) Factor out the common terms: (2x^2 - 2) = 2(x^2 - 1) = 2(x - 1)(x + 1) Cancel the common factor (2x^2 - 2) in the numerator and denominator. Now, simplify the remaining expression: 5x^2 - 9 + 1x + 9x + 10 + (14x^2 - 18x^2) + (14x - 9x) * (9 - 1) Combine like terms: 5x^2 + 14x^2 - 18x^2 = 1x^2 1x + 9x + (14x - 9x) = 15x -9 + 10 + (9 - 1) = 9 The equivalent expression is: x^2 + 15x + 9
