Jordan was simplifying the expression: 3x^{2}-4+8x-5x^{2}+63x2−4+8x−5x2+6. She simplified it to 8x^{2}+8x+108x2+8x+10, and then raised her hand to have her teacher check her work. Of the following, what is the best response from the teacher to Jordan?

Jordan is not correct. Every term has a sign to the left of it. When she combined 3x^{2}3x2 and -5x^{2}−5x2, she disregarded the sign of the 5x^{2}5x2 term and got 8x^{2}8x2 when she should have simplified it to -2x^{2}−2x2. She made the same mistake when adding the constants. She dropped the negative in front of the 4; -4 and 6 combine to 2.
