Question

what is the difference of the two polynomials?

\\((7y^2 + 6xy) - (-2xy + 3)\\)

  • \\(7y^2 + 4xy - 3\\)
  • \\(7y^2 + 4xy + 3\\)
  • \\(7y^2 + 8xy - 3\\)
  • \\(7y^2 + 8xy + 3\\)

Explanation:

Distribute the negative sign

Using the Distributive Property and Polynomial Subtraction knowledge points

$$ -( -2xy + 3 ) = 2xy - 3 $$

Rewrite the expression

Using the Polynomial Subtraction knowledge point

$$ (7y^2 + 6xy) - (-2xy + 3) = 7y^2 + 6xy + 2xy - 3 $$

Combine like terms

Using the Combining Like Terms knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Answer:

  • (A) \(7y^2 + 4xy - 3\)
  • (B) \(7y^2 + 4xy + 3\)
  • (C) \(7y^2 + 8xy - 3\) (Correct answer)
  • (D) \(7y^2 + 8xy + 3\)
