Answer:
[tex]5x^2 + 3x - 2[/tex]
This answer is correct because I simplified using like terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtracting Polynomials
They key to subtract, multiply, add, and divide polynomials is by using like terms. Like terms are values with the same bases. For example :
[tex]ax^2[/tex] and [tex]2ax^2[/tex] are like terms because they have the base [tex]ax[/tex]
Step 1: Move like terms together
First, let's remove all parenthesis:
[tex](3x^2 + 9x-6)-(2x^2-4x^2+6x-4)\\\\= 3x^2+9x-6-2x^2+4x^2-6x+4[/tex]
Now let's move all like terms together:
[tex]3x^2+9x-6-2x^2+4x^2-6x+4= \\3x^2-2x^2+4x^2+9x-6x-6+4[/tex]
Step 2: Simplify
Now we can add and subtract the like terms like we do in any other problem
[tex]3x^2-2x^2+4x^2+9x-6x-6+4 = \\5x^2+3x-2[/tex]
Step 3: Explaining your answer
Just say: "This answer is correct because I simplified using like terms"
