Answer:

$Polynomial = 5x+ 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Weights = 3 + 4x$

$Treadmill = 9x + 5$

Required

Polynomial that represents time spent running treadmill than weight lifting

To do this, we simply subtract weights from treadmill

i.e.

$Polynomial = Treadmill - Weights$

$Polynomial = 9x + 5 - (3 + 4x)$

$Polynomial = 9x + 5 - 3 - 4x$

$Polynomial = 9x - 4x+ 5 - 3$

$Polynomial = 5x+ 2$
