Question

simplify the following expression.
$3x^{2}-15x - 2 + 11x$

Explanation:

Step1: Identify like terms

The like terms in the expression \(3x^{2}-15x - 2+11x\) are the terms with \(x\) (i.e., \(- 15x\) and \(11x\)).

Step2: Combine like terms

Combine \(-15x\) and \(11x\): \(-15x + 11x=-4x\).
The \(3x^{2}\) and \(-2\) terms remain as they are since there are no like terms for them.
So the simplified expression is \(3x^{2}-4x - 2\).

Answer:

\(3x^{2}-4x - 2\)
