Simplified expression  of  [tex](10x^2 -8x -1) + (4x^2-8x -5)[/tex] is, [tex]14x^2 -16x -6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the expression: [tex](10x^2 -8x -1) + (4x^2-8x -5)[/tex]

First remove the parenthesis, we have;

[tex]10x^2 -8x -1 + 4x^2-8x -5[/tex]

Like terms defines as the terms whose variables are the same.

Combine like terms;

[tex](10x^2+4x^2) + (-8x -8x) + (-1-5)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]14x^2 -16x -6[/tex]

therefore, the simplified given expression is., [tex]14x^2 -16x -6[/tex]
