The question is imprecise ... the concept of 'combined' needs further definition.

How do you want them combined ?

By addition ? . . . . . x2 + x = x (x + 1)

By subtraction ? . . . . . x2 - x = x (x - 1)

By multiplication ? . . . . . (x2) (x) = x3

By division ? . . . . . x2 / x = +x or -x

By exponentiation ? . . . . . (x2)x = x2x = 102xlog(x)

We don't see any problem with any of these mathematical combining methods,

nor with any mechanical method, such as tying or gluing them together.
