Question

Subtract the binomials. On simplifying (-3y2 − 8) − (-5y2 + 1), we get ____ y2 −______ .

Answer 1

(-3y^2 − 8) − (-5y^2 + 1)
= -3y^2 − 8 + 5y^2 - 1
= 2y^2 - 9

answer is

2y^2 - 9

Answer 2

Answer:

$\text{The answer is }2y^2-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two binomials

$(-3y^2-8)$ and $(-5y^2+1)$

we have to subtract the above binomials.

$(-3y^2-8)-(-5y^2 + 1)$

Opening the bracket

$(-3y^2-8+5y^2-1)$

Summing up the like terms

$(-3y^2+5y^2-8-1)$

$2y^2-9$

$\text{Hence, the answer is }2y^2-9$
