Question

PLEASE ANSWER + BRAINLIEST!!!

Hassan writes an algebraic expression with four terms. The x-term has a coefficient of 2, and the z-term has a coefficient of -1. The expression has a constant term less than zero. Which expression could he have written?

A. 2x + z + 5 - 6z^2

B. 2x - z - 5 + 2z^2

C. -2x - z - 5 + 2z^2

D. -2x + z - 5 + 2z^2

Answer 1

We will write the expression step by step according to what the problem poses.
 We have then:
 The x-term has a coefficient of 2:
 $2x$
 the z-term has a coefficient of -1:
 $2x - z$
 The expression has a constant term less than zero:
 $2x - z - 5$
 Then, the complete expression is:
 $2x - z - 5 + 2z ^ 2$
 Answer:
 B. 2x - z - 5 + 2z ^ 2
