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