Select the correct difference. 5d2 + 4d - 3 less 2d2 - 3d + 4 I need someone to explain this to me step by step and don't just give me the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@myko will u please help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just add/rest terms that are alike (terms with same power of d). Got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which terms have d^2 besides them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what srry don't understand wat u r asking

Ok. Maybe this way then. Write what you need first. You need the difference, so: (5d2 + 4d - 3 )-(2d2 - 3d + 4) = 5d2+4d-3-2d2+3d-4 now, group the temrs with same power of d. There are 3 different powers: d^2, d and none. So: (5d2-2d2)+(4d+3d)+(-3-4) now take out the commun term outside of each paréntesis: (5-2)d2 +(4+3)d+(-3-4) and just perform the operations inside the paréntesis: 3d2+7d-7
