Add the Polynomials $$\left( 2 x ^ { 9 } - 6 x ^ { 8 } - 7 x ^ { 7 } - 8 \right) + \left( 4 x ^ { 9 } + 8 x ^ { 8 } + 3 x ^ { 7 } + 4 \right)$$

question 13

Multiple Choice

Add the polynomials. Assume all variable exponents represent whole numbers.
- $$\left( 2 x ^ { 9 } - 6 x ^ { 8 } - 7 x ^ { 7 } - 8 \right) + \left( 4 x ^ { 9 } + 8 x ^ { 8 } + 3 x ^ { 7 } + 4 \right)$$

• A) \(6 x ^ { 18 } + 2 x ^ { 16 } - 4 x ^ { 14 } - 4\)
• B) \(0 x ^ { 9 } + 0 x ^ { 8 } + 6 x ^ { 7 } - 2\)
• C) \(6 x ^ { 9 } + 2 x ^ { 8 } - 4 x ^ { 7 } - 4\)
• D) \(4 x ^ { 48 } - 4\)
