Answer 1

5x³ - 3x² + 8x + 10

Explanation:

Subtracting polynomials requires you to first distribute the negative sign to the second polynomial:

5x³ -x + 14 - 3x² + 9x - 4

Combine like terms: 5x³ - 3x² + 8x +10

Answer 2

5x^3 -3x^2 +8x +10 Combine all the like terms and multiply everything in the second parentheses by -1
