Answer 1

F(x)= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4

g(x)= 5x^3 -7x+ 4

f(x) - g(x)
= (9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4) - (5x^3 -7x+ 4)
= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4 -5x^3+ 7x -4
= (9x^3 -5x^3)+ 2x^2+ (7x -5x)+ (4-4) (combine like terms)
= 4x^3+ 2x^2+ 2x
= 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1)

The final answer is 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1).

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4

g(x)= 5x^3 -7x+ 4

f(x) - g(x)

= (9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4) - (5x^3 -7x+ 4)

= 9x^3+ 2x^2 -5x+ 4 -5x^3+ 7x -4

= (9x^3 -5x^3)+ 2x^2+ (7x -5x)+ (4-4) (combine like terms)

= 4x^3+ 2x^2+ 2x

= 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1)

The final answer is 2x* (2x^2+ x+ 1).
