Question

What is the difference between the two polynomials (3x^2-5x+2) and (5x^2-2x-6)

Answer 1

Answer: $-2x^2-3x+8$

Explanation:

To find the difference is to subtract the two polynomials.

$3x^2-5x+2-(5x^2-2x-6)$

You would distribute the subtraction sign to have an equation where you can add and subtract like terms.

$3x^2-5x+2-5x^2+2x+6$

Now, we combine like terms.

$-2x^2-3x+8$
