Answer: A) [tex]a^{2}[/tex] + a

add the two equations together to get A.

the ones cancel eachother out and you cant add [tex]a^{2}[/tex] to a

Answer:

A) a^2 + a

Step-by-step explanation:

So the problem says "sum" which means you have to add the expressions

(a^2) - 1 and a+1

Work:

((a^2) - 1) + (a + 1)

We can simplify only the constants

(a^2) + a + 1 - 1

(a^2) + a

so the answer is A
