Question

Suppose 9x+14 ice cream cones were sold on Saturday and 6x-12 were sold on Sunday what is the total number of ice cream cones sold?

Answer 1

Answer: 15x+2 ice cream cones

Step-by-step explanation: Separate out all of the parts of the polynomials. Add 9x and 6x (9x+6x=15x). Add 14 and -12 (14+-12=14-12=2). Add both of these back together to get 15x+2.
