OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this the question? \[(3x^2+5x-4)-(2x^2-7x-1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Stack the too equations and work it out. 3x^2 + 5x - 4 - 2x^2 - 7x - 1 what do you get by subtracting those two?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remember subtracting the x's does not get rid of them, for example: 3x^2 - 2x^2 = x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^2 + 12x - 3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(((3•(x2))+5x)-4)-(((2•x2)-7x)-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Raise x to the 2nd power

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is B ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(((3 • x^2) + 5x) - 4) - (2x^2 - 7x - 1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes! c:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3x^2+5x-4 - 2x^2-7x-1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyways you get it right? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
