Hi there! The answer is A.

(2x² + 3x - 10) - (x² - x + 111)
Let's solve this problem step by step!

First work out the parenthesis. Because we multiply by negative 1, we mustn't forget to change the symbols in front of the factors.
2x² + 3x - 10 - x² + x - 111

Now rearrange our expression, in order to collect the terms later.
2x² - x² + x + 3x - 10 - 111

And finally collect the terms.
x² + 4x -121

The answer is A.

⇒ 2x² - x² + 3x + x - 10 - 111

⇒x² + 4x - 121

Hence,
Option A. x² + 4x - 121 is Correct
