Question

Simplify. (5x2+2x−5)−(3x2+3x+1)

Answer 1

Answer:

2x^2 - x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x^2 - 3x^2 = 2x^2

2x - 3x = -x

-5 - 1 = -6

( ^ for exponents)

Answer 2

Answer:

x² - x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write expression

(5x² + 2x - 5) - (3x² + 3x + 1)

Step 2: Distribute negative

5x² + 2x - 5 - 3x² - 3x - 1

Step 3: Combine like terms (x²)

2x² + 2x - 5 - 3x - 1

Step 4: Combine like terms (x)

x² - x - 5 - 1

Step 5: Combine like terms (constants)

x² - x - 6
