The expression 3x^2 + x +1 is the height of the building. The expression 2x - 2 is the distance from the floor of the cafeteria to the top of the building. What is the expression for the height from the ground to the floor of the cafeteria?

3x²-x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Height of the building =  3x^2 + x +1

distance from the floor of the cafeteria to the top of the building = 2x -2

To get the expression for the height from the ground to the floor of the cafeteria, we will use the formula:

Height of the building = (distance from the floor of the cafeteria to the top of the building ) + (he height from the ground to the floor of the cafeteria)

substitute the given parameter into the formula:

3x^2 + x +1 = 2x -2 + P

P = 3x^2 + x +1 - (2X-2)

P = 3x^2 + x +1 - 2x+2

collect like terms:

P = 3x^2 + x-2x+2+1

P = 3x²-x+3

Hence the expression for the height from the ground to the floor of the cafeteria is 3x²-x+3
