Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To simplify the expression 2a^2 + 4ab + 2b^2 - a - b - 10, we need to combine like terms.

Starting with the terms involving a, we have 2a^2 - a.

Next, we have 4ab - b.

Finally, we have 2b^2 - 10.

Combining the terms:

2a^2 + 4ab + 2b^2 - a - b - 10 = (2a^2 - a) + (4ab - b) + (2b^2 - 10)

Simplifying further, we have:

= 2a^2 - a + 4ab - b + 2b^2 - 10

Thus, the simplified expression is 2a^2 - a + 4ab - b + 2b^2 - 10.
