Can anyone help with combining like terms? The question - 11 + 5t^2 + t + 6t.
I don't have a clue were to begin.
Wouldn't it be toget all the T's together?
Would 5t^ go with it also since it is an exponent?
I think so I am not sure but I think it would be that.Let me check with the teachers hang on!
Yes it would be like that LILY!Margie is correct!
would the answer be 12t+11?
thanks for the help!!!
Yes Lily!Good Job!If you need help with anymore just tell me I am the Dr.Phil.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No Problem!Also,if you need anything just ask me!

I don't know who is kidding whom; however, 12t + 11 is not correct. In the first place, one can not combine a t^2 and a t. The only like terms are the t and the 6t which is the same as 1t + 6t and that = 7t. So the correct answer is -11 + 5t2 + 7t. It can be rearranged to make the terms in decending order of t as
5t2 + 7t -11. Check my thinking. Check my work. I hope this helps.
knock off giving assistance with wrong answers....or, you will be banned. We take learning very seriously here.
Thanks.
your right bobpursley....dr.phil is wrong

I apologize for any confusion caused by the previous incorrect answer. Let me provide a clear explanation on how to combine like terms for the given expression - 11 + 5t^2 + t + 6t.
To combine like terms, we need to group together terms that have the same variables raised to the same powers. Here, we have two terms with the variable "t", which are "t" and "6t". Note that the term "5t^2" does not have the same power of "t" as the other two terms, so we cannot combine it with them.
We can simplify the expression by combining "t" and "6t" to get "7t". Therefore, the simplified expression is:
-11 + 5t^2 + t + 6t = 5t^2 + 7t - 11
We cannot further combine any other terms in this expression since they are all unlike terms.
I hope this clears up any confusion. Let me know if you need further assistance!
