Question

add.
$(8m^2 + 3m + 2) + (5m + 7)$

Explanation:

Step1: Remove parentheses

Remove the parentheses from the expression: \(8m^2 + 3m + 2 + 5m + 7\)

Step2: Combine like terms

Combine the \(m\) terms (\(3m + 5m = 8m\)) and the constant terms (\(2 + 7 = 9\)): \(8m^2 + (3m + 5m) + (2 + 7) = 8m^2 + 8m + 9\)

Answer:

\(8m^2 + 8m + 9\)
