@pooja195 please help!! my last question!

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the tricky part here is the second parentheses - you need to distribute -1 over the contents of this parentheses

rvc (rvc):

when u open the brackets the sign will change

OpenStudy (welshfella):

(6x^3 - 9x^2 +7x-7)- (2x^3-10x^2-9x+9) = 6x^3 - 9x^2 + 7x - 7 - 2x^3 + 10x^2 - can you complete this line?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

note that -1 * -10x^2 = + 10x^2

rvc (rvc):

correct @wade123 All the best

OpenStudy (welshfella):

yes

OpenStudy (wade123):

OpenStudy (welshfella):

there is an error in the last 2 terms

= 6x^3 - 9x^2 + 7x - 7 - 2x^3 + 10x^2 + 9x - 9 = 4x^3 + x^2 + 16x - 16
