Perform the indicated operation to write given polynomial in standard form: (x^3+2x^2 − 3x − 1) +(4 − x − x^3)

Answer:[tex]\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=2x^2-4x+3[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:To write any polynomial in standard form, you look at the degree of each term. You then write each term in order of degree, from highest to lowest, left to write.To add the polynomials you need to:Remove parentheses[tex]\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=x^3+2x^2-3x-1+4-x-x^3[/tex]Group like terms[tex]\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=x^3-x^3+2x^2-3x-x-1+4[/tex]Add similar elements[tex]\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=2x^2-3x-x-1+4\\\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=2x^2-4x-1+4\\\left(x^3+2x^2-3x-1\right)+\left(4-x-x^3\right)=2x^2-4x+3[/tex]
