What is obtained by subtracting (2x^2-3x+4) from (5x^2+2x-7)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (3x^2+5x-11)

The direct answer is option C: \(3x^2+5x-11\). “Subtract the second expression from the first” means \((5x^2+2x-7) - (2x^2-3x+4)\). The minus sign before the bracket changes every sign inside: \(5x^2+2x-7-2x^2+3x-4\). Now combine like terms: \(5x^2-2x^2=3x^2\), \(2x+3x=5x\), and \(-7-4=-11\). Thus the result is \(3x^2+5x-11\). Option A has \(-x\) because it fails to change the sign of \(-3x\). Option B adds the expressions instead of subtracting them. Option C performs the subtraction correctly. Option D changes several signs incorrectly and gives the wrong constant sign. Exam cue: when a whole bracket is subtracted, reverse every sign inside it before collecting like terms.
