Question

When -x^2+ 6x + 2 is subtracted from x^2 - 4x + 3, will the result be a polynomial?

Answer 1

Answer: YES  (2x² - 10x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x + 3  -  ( - x² + 6x + 2) = x² - 4x + 3 + x² - 6x - 2

                                             =  x² + x² - 4x - 6x + 3  - 2

                                             =  2x² - 10x + 1
